*OFFICAL THREAD* AS Edexcel History Unit 1 (Stalin's Russia) - May 14th 2014

I could have sworn there was a Bolshevik question on 2013 paper

Oh God please no, the duma stuff is my weakest. There's 2 choices so there'd be a Duma question and a PG/Bolsheviks-1924 one right?

Please do take a pic, just so that im able to get a better understanding but thanks for that, at least I now know something lool

If there was, I'm fairly certain it would have been about the Power Struggle, I can't imagine it being about pre-1924.

2013 was how far do you agree that the Bolsheviks consolidated their hold on power in the years after the October/November revolution mainly through the use of violence
against their opponents?

I could have sworn there was a Bolshevik question on 2013 paper

Yeah, that's a question for D3 (Russia, 1881 - 1924), not Stalin's Russia.

Wait wait wait the topic starts in 1924, right?

I mean background info is useful, of course, but we would never be asked on anything pre-1924 would we?

Sorry, I was replying to someone who was asking for predictions in Tsarist Russia! 1881-1917 (D3)

Am I on a different exam then?

Wait, so is D3 a different paper? Im confused lool

Yeah, you're probably just looking at the wrong questions. These are the questions to do with Russia for January 2013, but if you're only studying Stalin and not late-Tsarist Russia, you're only bothered about the bottom two (D4).

Depends if you're doing Edexcel! Edexcel's question format goes like D1, D2, D3, D4 etc... D3 and D4 Being Russian History! D3 - Tsarist Russia, D4 - Stalin's Russia
