How do you know what the questions are gunna be?! There isn't that much to write on Trotsky really. If your really keen try looking at some of his writings or writings on him.

its pretty easy......just so much to remember. And there is very little historiography!!!

sorry bout the late reply. Key Features of Modern History and also Contested Spaces and of course a thousand handouts

wow we must have been marked easily!! I got 75% in the catholic paper and that was no where near the top marks! But our school has a long running reputation for marking very hard....hmmm maybe we are all just nerds lol

I have an essay to prepare for next week on the Arab-Israeli crisis. The question reads: Discuss how Palestinian refugees and their organisations have responded to the policies of the Israeli Government between 1964-1996. (HSC 2002) I need some historiography for this essay and yet i have...

Well im doing Arab Israeli and basically you need to know the whole topic - you cant just study select periods. The problem with this topic is the amount of dates and the names and all the political and military rows occurring, and then on top of that you need historiography! AARRGGHH It is a...

Tigers fan eh? Im like you buddy except im coming 2nd overall and i dunno what my mark is and dont particularly care! The only study i did for the trial was read through the text book. I didnt do any practice questions. I did last years general maths hsc paper under exam conditions and...

Yeah just make notes on each sorta area of Russia. Like revolution 1917, Nep era, collectivisation etc. Get an essay question for each 'era' that ive been talking about and write up a prepared essay. you'd be suprised how much it sinks in. Also it is easy to spot errors in the textbooks if you...

Yeah notes on the syllabus are good. and rolz what do you mean its easy to remember coz its just dates and people? obviously your not doing the arab israeli conflict. I cant believe the amount of names and dates involved! lol

Tasting wine was the best bit. the guys at both wineries gave us a few glasses each. they reckoned it was 'legal' coz we in a different state on an excursion. yeah pull the other one! My trial is next week and we havnt covered the ecosystem topic yet so if anyone has any good sites or...
