i got a lot of d’s too. i thought they were mostly guesses, though
Nooooooooo I put Yellowstone :-t
i did the calculation since i believe the max score is 180.
What would you need for a 5 on the SA though… Prolly 12/16
i didn’t put a specific example for muir or teddy, i didn’t think that is what they were asking for 
but i did mention national parks in the third part and mentioned that they were preservationists and conservationists, respectively
I said for the difference in Chesapeak and Boston that Chesapeak had more trade and commerce. And I said they both were heavily religious areas. I completely guessed but is that right?
Chesapeake was less religious than New England.
Isn’t the short answer out of 12 because it was 4 questions with 3 parts each?
@amck4321 I think I had a ton of A’s in a row.
@RHSclassof16, well since the SAQ is worth 20%, let’s say someone get 9/12 in total, then 27 points will go to total raw score. I really believe the max score is 180.
they only asked evidence to back one of muir and roosevelt, not both.
I put Chesapeake employed slaves, NE didn’t, because NE as founded for religious reasons and chesapeake for economic and slaves were needed to farm the cash crops

easier than I expected but that’s bad, imo. easy means everyone did great, which means bad curve, which means no silly errors.

Screwed. That’s how I’d describe it. The concentration on colonial stuff for like 60% of the test screwed me hard. Basically, if I had only taken the first semester of history and reviewed that well, I’d have been set for the test. WWI? WWII? Civil War? No, those didn’t happen. Almost nothing I studied helped me.

I struggled the most with SAQs. The test felt jumpy. They just skipped around, sometimes to important concepts, sometimes to things of no relevance that we barely touched on. MPC questions that compared concepts/people/movements/etc were the hardest part of MPC, imo.
oh alright, sweet!!
for differences i said new england was a primarily trade economy due to large cities and ports but the chesapeake was big on agriculture and grain?
Wasn’t the cartoon about Korea, not Vietnam?
oh shit. I did national parks for SAQ but I said that the federal government established hundreds, if not thousands, of parks. Just googled it and Roosevelt created FIVE national parks. Do you think that that will hurt my score a lot?
@glasshours no, the cartoon was about Vietnam. It was published in 1966.
@16elir - You’ll be fine. It was only one part of one of the short answers, and maybe your grader will glaze over the part that says “hundreds”. 
I thought MacArthur said that about Korea…I didn’t even look at the publication date.
national parks would have been good to favor either guy. Muir wanted wilderness untouched by civilization and that’s what national parks were. can’t go wrong either way.
@schakrab Yeah I said it favored both because Muir wanted untouched wild and Rosevelt wanted something preserved for future generations.
@ShipAlreadySank I can relate! I feel the same way. I wasn’t too specific on one of the short answers so I"m nervous.The short answers were kinda hard. It was way harder than the released practice test. I thought it wasn’t focused on the important stuff
