Hey, I did this exam today. Answered questions 2 and 3. Thought the choice of questions was a little bit limited though.
What other questions did you all do?

hi im freaking out would you be able to tell me what you would have done for the first question if you wrote it? so it was something about loyalty about building wall i cant remember the exact wording. i did, yes and no reasons for loyalty from that 49-61 period eg not loyalty because of 2.5 million migrate from 49-61, the stasi founded in 50 showed the gov didnt trust population made them conform out of fear so not loyal. and then reasons they mite be loyal like some good ulbricht financial stuff

Think the first question was like 'The building of the wall in 1961 was necessary as Ulbricht had failed to win the support of GDR citizens'... That's all good yeah! I would have probably divided it like a niche society question and said he did fail to win the support (non-conformists eg 1953 uprising), he failed to win internal support (eg outward conformist) then he genuinely won the support. My judgement would be that the statement is true though to a larger extent as 2.5 million exodus, how many times he came close to losing his position, etc etc

I had a similar method to you! I basically argued that first it was because the GDR was economically redundant so they had no choice but to build a wall, then I argued back saying that wasn't the fault of the GDR but rather the tactics of the FRG via magnet theory, and the GDR was economically okay in relative standards. Then I argued that the political repression they inflicted on the citizens discouraged political conformism inducing the necessity of the wall, then brought it back again saying society was already inclined to hate communism even pre-1949/pre-GDR because of the wrath of the Red Army/Hitler's anti-communist propaganda, e.g. people had been fleeing westwards (mass exodus) before the GDR even existed
Everyone else I've spoken to focused the question around the niche - I don't think our vaguely similar methods are wrong but just a different interpretation of the question?
This exam was over a week ago and it's still stressing me out! Sigh
