2 paragraphs? our book has like 5 lines :l.

main thing with paper 2 is that you just need to know couple of background info...mostly its about answering the questions using the sources... tbh memorise a couple of pieces of info about why hitler got involved and you should be fine. a few i know are:

-he saw it as an attack on communism
-wanted to test out the condor legion of the luftwaffe
-he wanted to get spains nature valuable resources to use in his rearmament program
-he saw it as a grand way of uniting anti-communist elements around the world
-he wanted to strengthen his alliance with mussolini

should be fine =) best of luck

and to amdoo...history is arguably the hardest exam im taking, and im taking:

english first language
english literature
mathematics extended
business studies
economics
chemistry
physics
history
ict

and i took english 2nd language last year.

history is also the exam with the smallest number of a* worldwide, so please, post here after you get ur result and inform me if you get an a*, as you think its that easy. and why dont u give ur exam with your eyes closed? dont say something like that when you know ur gonna give the exam with your eyes open =p
