AP European History Post Test

<p>Who was that guy on the MC that came to power in Florence? I don’t recall ever leaning anything 'bout him.</p>

<p>Savonarola. I’m not sure what the answer was though.
I chose the rejection of materialism.</p>

<p>Art history in fact helped me a lot! I had practiced a Romanticism essay in Euro which helped in the Art History exam and now Art History helped me with the FRQ question for the Euro exam. Awesome (:</p>

<p>I am so jealous that many of you guys actually took the course. My school doesn’t offer that I just BS thru the Euro test this afternoon. </p>

<p>For the last couples of questions of MC, what did you guys put for the post 1991 Soviet Union economy?</p>

<p>I didn’t realize until I started writing the FRQs that I had no idea how to write them, hahaha. My teacher was really good but he didn’t teach to the test at all and I hadn’t studied, so I didn’t know if they were supposed to be multiple paragraphs or what… Is it okay if I did them with an intro paragraph, 2-3 body paragraphs, and a conclusion?</p>

<p>pretty easy! loved the dbq, easy to see POVs in feminists.</p>

<p>did anyone do the first FRQ w/ technology and state power? I focused on exploration/printing press…</p>

<p>@diana</p>

<p>That’s the exactly the way you should do it. :)</p>

<p>^ I did the first FRQ too!</p>

<p>I talked about the printing press, Galileo/Copernicus, and improved transportation</p>

<p>whew, good. I felt like I had to stretch a tad to connect the printing press, lol.</p>

<p>the hitler FRQ was a piece of cake, though I spent a bit talking about the context and what happened before 1933. oh well :)</p>

<p>( wait, how is Galileo a piece of technology? lol)</p>

<p>The multiple choice was ridiculous for me.</p>

<p>The DBQ was really easy. It basically was a European gilded age topic so once APUSH was done I had a smile on my face for the DBQ for Euro.</p>

<p>I also did 4 and 6 but my essays were horrible. I got a 4 probably</p>

<p>I self-studied and bs-ed my way through the exam, and I thought:</p>

<p>DBQ=Easy
FRQ=Easy
MCQ=Moderate</p>

<p>For the medicine book one, what’d u guys get?</p>

<p>[Andreas</a> Vesalius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesalius]Andreas”>Andreas Vesalius - Wikipedia) fixed Galen’s medicine work</p>

<p>Weird MC - a lot of knowledge based Q’s that you either knew or didn’t. I thought the DBQ was easy and the FR was ok</p>

<p>Yay the test is finally over! </p>

<p>Multiple choice was super easy, everyone in my class (which is mostly made up of C students) thought it was easy too.</p>

<p>DBQ was relatively easy, I just had a small issue with grouping at first.</p>

<p>I did 4 and 6 for my FRQs. I knew the French Revolution and Napoleonic era very well and I dropped a lot of names, events, documents, dates, etc. #6 was hard for me since I made it way too general and didn’t know much about world war II. </p>

<p>Overall, I think I got 65/80 on mc, 8 on dbq, 9 on frq #4, and maybe a 4 on frq #6.</p>

<p>But that still is plenty enough to get a 5.</p>

<p>Also, to add to the multiple choice discussion. I am pretty sure that one picture was not about the dutch since they were pretty religiously tolerant, but I could be wrong.</p>

<p>Also, the medicine book question was Vesalius.</p>

<p>YES THANK GOD I was between Vesalius and Harvey and arbitrarily chose Vesalius. I seemed to get really lucky with the guessing this time…</p>

<p>I didn’t know the answers to any questions about women -_-</p>

<p>Dutch → Calvinism → No statues?</p>

<p>echoyjeff22, Galileo obviously isn’t a piece of technology, but his creation/improvement of the telescope was, and I argued that the telescope allowed the ideas of the Church to be questioned, weakening the Church and allowing the State to fill in the power vacuum that the lack of a belief in the Church caused.</p>

<p>Hm interesting. I was just trying to avoid going down the hole of admitting that the printing press actually promoted more freedom of speech and deteriorated the state’s power, hehe.</p>

<p>I was going to put Galileo, but then i realized that his prime was after 1600. so i talked only about Copernicus (btw, i thought i was the only person that said something about the printing press, it felt like a wild idea at the time lol)</p>

<p>Guys how much outside info do we need to include in the DBQ to get a good score (7, 8, or 9). I didn’t really have much, just a couple things like Luddites, Iron Law of Wages, etc (1 or 2 things like that per body paragraph)</p>

<p>You don’t. DBQ for AP Euro is so much easier than APUSH just because you don’t need ANY outside info for a high score, lol! You should be fine as long you as you categorized into 3 groups and also talked about POV 3+ times.</p>
