<p>So what did everyone think? Don't defy the CB's rule about specific multiple choice questions, but feel free to discuss.</p>
<p>Here's what I thought:</p>
<p>MC: Very easy, straightforward and to the point. Not very wide coverage though, I felt there were a lot of eras that got little to no questions. (Both world wars, Civil War, Reconstruction, and Andrew Jackson- I don't think his name showed up once on the whole test)</p>
<p>DBQ: LOVED this DBQ. I could write a book on Nixon, but I only wrote 3 pages here (small handwriting)</p>
<p>Pre-Civil War Question: Did the Political party one. Pretty easy stuff, enjoyed writing it.</p>
<p>After-Civil War Question: Did the black one. Fairly straightforward.</p>
<p>my class hadn’t even gotten to nixon yet…i had no idea what the dbqs were about and i basically blanked and failed on the entire thing. fmlfmlfmlfml. the multiple choice i thought were pretty hard…i mean seeing as that i didn’t even get past the 1960s in class, i may have done better than i thought with my guessing, but still it was really bad. i did essays 3 and 4 and i mean they could’ve been better if i had more time and if i wasn’t freakking out about the dbq, but they were okay i guess.</p>
<p>overall i’d say the exam was hard. the end.</p>
<p>MC were fine, although I was slightly annoyed/surprised because it seemed to have more emphasis on post-1950 than I had thought. Yeah, we didn’t get past 1950. eff.</p>
<p>mc was kind of difficult for me but I lovedddd the dbq too. I wrote 3 and a half pages–I could go on and on about nixon. The free responses were pretty straightforward too. I wrote about slavery (yay Direct Hits!) and the African American leaders one.</p>
<p>MC: alright, I probably missed 12-17 (there were some things I didn’t learn…but let’s hope I 'm a good guesser ) and yeah. pretty straightforward, a lot like the practice test I took.</p>
<p>DBQ: I rocked it. I didn’t even study past The 1950s, and I still remembered a lot of stuff about Nixon I wrote 5 1/2 pages, but I have big handwriting hahaha</p>
<p>I chose 3 and 4 and I thought I did pretty well for the FRQs, I wrote 4 pages each. </p>
<p>DBQ and FRQ i didnt think were that bad but the MC was sort of hard i thought - as in the disparity in information. Most were easy but the ones that were hard were really hard.</p>
<p>was garvey the one that wanted them to go back to africa?</p>
<p>The DBQ was a good one… I realized after the test was collected that I had somehow forgotten to mention vietnamization but I did mention Detente. </p>
<p>Omg, the only things I knew for the DBQ were vietnamization, watergate scandal, and I talked about students O_____O. I’m worried. What did you guys write about? Why was there an energy crisis?? I loved the FRQs</p>
<p>I think energy crisis had something to do with Yom Kippur War and the Middle East getting ****ed at us because we supported Israel, leading them to embargo oil. But I couldn’t remember if that happened under Nixon or someone else so I just said that Nixon viewed OPEC as a threat and wanted energy independence.</p>
) and yeah. pretty straightforward, a lot like the practice test I took.</p>
I wrote 5 1/2 pages, but I have big handwriting hahaha</p>
