You might not! Tbf I got D in History GCSE and for some ridiculous reason decided I wanted to do it at A level as well. Safe to say I dropped it after first year.

I'm sure you'll do fine, just make sure you know your stuff!
I'd try and search out my old notes or something but I'm pretty sure I burnt them. They were tainted with failure. :L

In June 2012 the Feb 1917 revolution came up and Trotsky's leadership of the red army

Stalin's Rise to power and Collectivisation came up.

Jan 2012 had the provisional government and the 1905 revolution

Stalin's Five year plans and and WW2 came up then.

I'm betting the civil war & purges :smile:

Good luck

I think you should check for an edexcel thread because this is a bit different but you can pick similar points from this thread but i dont advise such because its best to work with your board's scheme of work. Goodluck

I'm sitting this exam for the first time a little bit worried that industrialisation and opposition might come up as I find those quite tricky to get my head round. They seem to be quite keen on reforms for question 1, question 2 opposition seems to be popular and duma/manifesto stuff, and question 3 the provisional government has only not come up once. I really have no idea what will come up though :/

I hope provisional government comes up cause thats the only thing I know. I like reforms aswell, I'm just hoping opposition doesn't come up!

Just misread, the title, didn't realise AQA did a similar course. Good luck anyway.

Witte and industrialisation hasn't came up since Jan 10 so that is a really good possibility!! What are you revising?

Everything :/ I'm trying to focus on stuff I don't know that well but Witte stuff just confused me and makes me stress out so if there's a question on it I'll try and avoid it if I can. Knowing my luck oppoisition will be the first question and Witte will be the second question haha
