I do all the same options as you! pretty sure it's impossible to predict...they usually definitely don't do the ones from the year before.

although watch out with some dot points eg the USSR one about Civil War, Brest Litovsk and the NEP (this was asked about in 2017 and 2018, not 2019) they might ask a question from the same dot point as the last years except one year they might specify NEP, the next year Civil War etc.

we definitely could. from that section last years questions were about the civil rights act of 1964, the desegregation of little rock and MLK vs Malcolm X
