History help !

I hate school

What do you have to study for Q5 is it a document where you read and answer questions or what is it ?
Also what always comes up in Q6 (a) ?
Is it also WW2 in Q6 (d) ?
Thanks in advance

Q5 is usually to do with second year topics as far as I remember - The Age of Exploration, The Reformation, Plantations, Revolutions, The Industrial Revolution, Ireland in the Nineteenth Century . Yeah it comprises of documents/pictures and then you'll have to write an account or two, so you need to know each section quite well.

6A changes every year, it's very unpredictable, any section of the course can be examined. You're right, 6D is International Relations in the Twentieth Century (not just World War 2!).

How much choice is in these questions? Because I'd love to avoid WW2 at all costs, it's way too much to study for Thursday (when my mocks are on)

There's no need to learn every bit of the course for section 6 if you're trying to get ready for your mocks quickly (the next four months is a different story). Usually in Q6 there's a question on Social Change in Ireland in the Twentieth Century, Political Developments in Ireland in the Twentieth Century and Internal Relations in the Twentieth Century (think there was one year Social Change didn't come up though). The latter two are in my opinion the most interesting parts of the course, there's a lot of information to be learnt but it's all quite interesting really. It's a lot to study in a short space of time though. Social Change is quite difficult to do well in, mostly because a lot of people think the questions look handy and don't back up their points with relevant facts, but if you actually know your stuff, by all means attempt it. So yeah, I think the easiest questions to attempt are C and D, but that was me and I absolutely looooved 3rd Year History. Honestly just see on the day before picking what to answer, you could get lucky with A. And be sure to study at least two of the Cold War Crisis's, they feature in some way every year on the actual paper, often in 6D.

Pick two questions to answer out of four, 6D doesn't have to be about world war 2, often there's a few short questions and then a question on a cold war crisis, although often you'll have to write accounts on WW2. See what happens, don't restrict yourself yet! And World War 2 is easily done in a few nights, trust me. Unless you didn't find the whole thing as wonderfully interesting as I did... But seriously...Nazi Germany 1933-39 , Hitler's rise to power (with all of that invasion madness), the war itself e.g. the invasion of Poland, the Blitz, Operation Dynamo (Dunkirk), Operation Barbarossa, Stalingrad, El Alamein, D-Day, Hitler's suicide as Russian troops approach...Then The Final Solution, The War in the Pacific (Operation Manhattan - Hiroshima and Nagasaki)...and voila, war is over. OK, that sounds like a lot but it's INTERESTING. Did I mention it's interesting?

Wow, can't believe I remember all that...I miss history.

So, my history mock is Thursday I roughly have about an hour a night until Thursday to spend on History (or less) what should I spend my time on? All third year stuff is my weakest point, but it will take me a month to get through all that and I don't remember things easily.
