<p>what were the exact questions? (wording) for 2 and 4??
cus if you only answered one part of the question, then you would have gotten half the points off!</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Describe the causes and effects of two of the following rebellions.</p></li>
<li><p>Show how TR changed the federal government based on two of the following choices</p></li>
</ol>

<p>I think the exact wording of 4 was how he changed the role of the federal government.</p>

<p>Clayton Act was Wilson
anyone do a rebuttal for anything??</p>

<p>ad for TR, did you talk about how we was a complete chage ffrom the Gilded Age</p>

<p>b/c I did , but i forgot to mention what the Gilded Age actually was
and I mentioned lessez-faire
isolationism, and a lack of a foreign policy under the Gilded Age presidents</p>

<p>Yeah, Clayton was Wilson and Sherman was back in 1890.
What do you mean by rebuttal? Did I completely refute the question, then no. I did say that Roosevelt changed the role of the government much more domestically than he did in terms of foreign affairs.</p>

<p>Number 2 was the significance of the two rebellions, not really causes. But they're kind of the same thing..</p>

<p>Russo-Japanese War? How did that change the role of federal govnt? Roosevelt himself helped Russia and Japan to reach a peace treaty, which Japan didn't like very much since it was fair. Thus Roosevelt received the Nobel Peace Prize for that.</p>

<p>if i wrote about FDRs first term instead of his second on number 5, but did LBJ perfectly, what is the highest score i could get? thanks for any help</p>

<p>i mean rebuttal as in
you rebut any opposition that could be given to your thesis
and i thought he changed the role of federal gov considerably in both arenas
you could argue it was mckinley b4 him but
he was in mckinley's admin, so i thought he could partially be resposibile for mckinley;s foreign policy</p>

<p>you could say Roosevelt activated the Sherman ANti Trust act
since it was crushed under the weight of late 1800s Republican sleaze and was never utilized before</p>

<p>Just a question.. how hard is it to get a 4/9 on your FR's..</p>

<p>I did #3 and #5
3- did abolition and temperance, but had no details about Second Great Awakening influences- lots of generalizations.
5- did FDR and Nixon- said that landslide victories don't necessarily guarantee success, but it helps I guess. Problem is I meantioned all sorts of New Deal stuff that was from FDR's First aministration, not his second, which is what CB wanted us to write about (1936). Then for Nixon I talked about Vietnamization and how he got us out over there. I really didn't know much about Johnson or Reagan, and I wanted both guys to support the thesis, so I only briefly mentioned Watergate.<br>
Hoping for like 4-5 on each essay, since DBQ was at least a 7 and MC were great.</p>

<p>i also did fdrs first term instead of his second. so do you think the highest i could get would be a 5/9?</p>

<p>@JW..If you have most of the info correct, then it shouldn't be that hard.</p>

<p>@ Madeleine, FDR was in office for approximately 12 years, I mean they can't expect you to cover all those years of accomplishment.</p>

<p>yeah but they only wanted the second term. and i wrote about the first term.</p>

<p>bumpin
?????????????????????????????</p>

<p>I wrote on two and four as well. I'm killing myself because I had a great quote describing the Whiskey Rebellion - "like crushing a gnat with a sledgehammer" - but I put it in my Shays' Rebellion paragraph! >.< I think I messed up the Shays' significance (switched it with whiskey), but got Whiskey all right (since I wrote nearly the same thing, but with the excise tax and all that).<br>
The TR FRQ was nice - I mentioned the anti-trust acts (but added that clayton was not in TR's presidency, but that it was important). I am a bit worried that my "world affairs" concentration was mainly on the Roosevelt Corollary, though I analyzed it in depth. Wish I would have remembered to add other things instead of getting caught up in the Monroe vs. Corollary analysis.</p>

<p>Hope the DBQ makes up for some of my FRQ imperfections!</p>

<p>does the curve always stay the same? Is it 114-180 for a 5?</p>

<p>@ Madeleine: If they only wanted 2nd term, and you wrote the first one, then I'm sorry but you are screwed.</p>

<p>how screwed? I think I did the same thing.</p>

<p>yeah how screwed. 4/9 screwed or 1/9 screwed. i did the other president correctly.</p>
