Yeah it was decon last year too, which was why I was guessing it's going to be the same. The decon tests your skills and not your contextual knowledge, which is why it's good (for us non-muggertoads, as well as for the teachers to test you) heh.
Quite a few schools gave decon, but some were on defence, some were on population etc etc. I made a list of how many schools(from what I have) gave what topics and spotted from there. I don't do wild guessing (:
Then again I do, but only for some. I thought conflict was a highly plausible topic since it hasn't been too good, these few years.
All the best, don't be scared. You already did so well for prelims, so you shouldn't be too worried about the O's if you just keep doing your thing right on. :)
SBQ was like shit. I totally didnt expect decontextualized study to come out. I misinterprated source A and i didn't manage to give both point of views for question d.

Pity, though, they set the very last paper in such a WEIRD way.

I'm worried about my Hist - I'd have to pull up my SS. Mine's on the 16th though. I don't know what will happen if Germany comes out tomorrow.
