Yep, mid to high 80s should be the cutoff! I remember our teacher mentioned it in the last week :)

Just switched computers and now its working haha, thanks for checking! Yeah it is very much common sense..I think the only areas which I may need to revise is some of the Workcover/OHS info and definitions of viruses and trojans etc! That's exactly what happened to most of my class, we had to...

They will have one question for Section III and one question for Section IV Exactly how I feel about it! I haven't started studying though - I did 0% study and got 92% in the Independent Trial haha Are the online multiple choice working for you? It stops loading for me

Plus I'm ranked first by some miraculous decision made by the evil gods of assesments so I'm going to destroy it for the other 5 people fuuuuuuuuuuuu

I spent 95% of last week/weekend studying for modern and oh my goddddd I am going to fail Crime THIS THIS THIS

it's seems you're the only other person posting on here about Russia and Trotsky :) Well it's highly unlikely that they will ask specifically about his exile in A) because the question is usually "describe the rise to prominence" or "explain the significant events" and the question has to...

You need to talk about FOREIGN factors affecting policy - hence foreign policy things like: - Treaty of Rapallo - Nazi-Soviet Non Agreession Pacr - Treaty of Brest-Litovsk - Anglo-Soviet agreements etc etc etc

When it's talking about in conjunction with purges and show trials, then I'd say its all about Stalinism's impacts - I did an essay plan for this question, though you could probably tie Lenin in by contrasting his "red terror" with Stalin's Cheka

Not usually, if there's a question on "emerging differences" or something early like "Truman doctrine" then it really can be anything

This is my nightmare because I'm one of those "many people" haha, but as long as the power struggle question is something like "why did Stalin win the struggle over power" or "the power struggle was a conflict of ideologies, assess the accuracy of this statement"

Yes in the "Soviet State Under Stalin" I'm hoping there's not foreign policy though! What topic did you do for International Study?

LoveHateSchool, in regards to your prediction that one Russia question will be on Stalinism I've just noticed that the 2007,08,09,10 (b) question were all on Stalinism Do you think this is a good indicator of a Stalinism question this year?
