-Definitely something on who won the Cuban Missile crisis and how both leaders handled it
-Why the cold war started
-berlin blockade
-how Castro's position changed relations between Cuba and the USA
-why the USSR got involved in Cuba
-why the USA withdrew from Vietnam
-Vietnamisation
Sorry, this is pretty much the whole unit but I've been looking through past papers myself and these seem to come up repeatedly. Hopefully Monday's exam will be a nice one

As the Cold War is a fairly new topic for these exams and there aren't many past papers, I think the safest option would be to pretty much revise the whole of the syllabus. There should be a checklist at the back of the book which is really helpful!
