Had mine today, punished everything but the second part of the personality study, I think. Anyone else do theirs yet? How'd you go?

Completed mine a couple of weeks ago. Got results back end of last week, smashed it. n_n Was extremely happy.

What topics do you cover besides the core?
Also, glad to hear that you smashed it as well! Congratulations! n_n

Soviet Union: Assess the view that Stalinism can be considered totalitarianism, something along those lines. Not hard at all
Arab Israeli Conflict: Account for the continuing conflict between 1948 and 1967. Not hard either
And then I did Trotsky for the personality study, pretty much the common style questions, just didn't leave enough time for the second bit to do as well as I would've liked.
I'm glad my teacher chose those options, I love both of them. What are you doing?
Good work on the results! What were your marks?

Wow, the sound like very interesting topics, especially Soviet Russia. (My teacher chose a lot of topics that focus on Germany. D:)

Germany 1918-39: Assess the impact of Nazism on Foreign Policy, or To what Extent did weaknesses in the Weimar Republic account for the growth and rise of the Nazi party to 1933. Really good questions, considering prior to the exam I thought this was my worst section, but did surprisingly good.
Conflict in Europe: Question on Appeasement or collapse of collective security as a cause for the outbreak of war. I love this topic, and performed really well!
I do Leni Riefenstahl for my personality (Woohoo more Germany) which was a standard run of the mill type question.

I ended up with a 94 for my exam, was extremely happy with it! n_n Hope your marks are just as pleasing, if not better!

it might be the independent one, because dont the schools who buy the CSSA papers abide by the timetable already set up by the CSSA or something like that

We had the same question !!!!. But i did end up doing the other option though.

Overall, it was not a very hard exam i think. One of my best.

To be honest man, I did not study much for the exam.

If you have consistently paid attention in class and done your readings, you should be okay even if you havnt studied much...
