Anyone has predictions for Cold War ?

my friends and I figured out that the Vietnam War is yet to come up on any element of the exam, and we thought that maybe they could make the 16 marker 'events between Asia and the West' so Vietnam War and Korea would be the main ones to discuss for that.
We also figured out that Marshall Aid and Cominform/Comecon are yet to come up.
Hungarian Uprising has come up twice (i think) so we thought that would be unlikely !

if anyone has other predictions for Cold War and Germany i wld b grateful :smile:

Thank you so much! I figured Korean War would come up bc it’s not come up in any of them, but I’m not sure how much we’re supposed to know about the Vietnam war? Is it the causes and consequences on Cold War only? Bc the events extend beyond our time period.

Anyone have tips on studying for the history exam

i usually write flashcards to test myself, plan questions and write notes on a sheet of paper where i put 'when?' 'who?' 'what?' and 'effects?' and essentially summarise the events into the key people, the key dates, what actually happened and any implications it had on the rest of the unit that I could link the event to in longer answer questions! hope that is useful

I use seneca, they have a new thing where it asks you loads of questions and gives you the topics you need to revise. I then make flashcards on those topics
