    A person in Ancient Rome
    A renaissance artist from Italy
    A renaissance artist from outside Italy
    A worker during the industrial revolution
    Michael Collins (a revolutionary leader in 20th century Ireland)

    You won't get Hitler - but 'a supporter of the Nazi party'

    my predicitions for people are ;

    archaelelogist in work
    Ancient person IN Ireland
    revolutionary
    renaissance painter or sculptor
    coalminer or factory worker in industrial rev.
    leader in cold war crisis e.g. cuban missile crisis , korean war

    in fairness i wouldn't go with john calvin or columbus because they came up last year ! nor michael collins or child in ancient rome because they also came up last year :P ... hope it helps :D

    I did Christopher Columbus and George Washington last year in the real exam, so I doubt an explorer or revolutionary leader will come up again for you. They rotate the options for this question every two years - I'm not great with odds and probability or anything, but all of my predictions came true for the history paper :D There's a pattern of rotation for every question - just open up your exam papers and work out each pattern :)

    Sorry, my mistake - I did Columbus and Martin Luther :rolleyes:
    So yeah, I wouldn't go with an explorer or a figure during the reformation :L

    Don't rely on any pattern, real or imagined.

    Please.
