<p>What did you get for Gandhi and the spinning wheel?</p>
<p>that he didn’t like modern things or something</p>
<p>I think I said he didn’t like industrialization</p>
<p>I think that was the same
or not
dunno
still curve is really flexible
like 74 gets you 800
so i’ll get 700-750 anyway</p>
<p>I really need an 800. My whole school is really competitive and almost everyone took bio last year and got an 800, including me. I’m the only person who took this so I have to stand out.</p>
<p>I was pretty shocked by the difficulty of the test. On the official practice test provided by collegeboard, I only omitted 3 questions and guessed on a few (got an 800). </p>
<p>However, on this test, there was so much (about 8 or 9 questions, mostly relating to specific leaders and then Southeast Asia) that I hadn’t ever covered in my AP World class so I had to omit 10 and guessed on 6 or 7. After finally getting to the end (just barely) I simply cancelled my score. </p>
<p>It’s really not worth the risk considering I can only take it again in June, and then AP World History will be even further from my memory. Kinda disappointed about not being able to take Lit but I’m glad I chose to take the World History exam first so I could leave sooner… whatever.</p>
<p>To be honest, I found this one easier than others. I left like 4 blank on this one whereas on practice tests I usually leave like 10 blank. What did you all get on the boris Yeltsin Soviet Union quote? I said that for force you need a military and when the military deteriorated, so did the Soviet Union? Unsure though. Please post back!!!</p>
<p>Forget my earlier post I guess its okay to talk about answers haha I just didn’t want SAT people coming after me. The queen of Sheba was definitely Yemen though I watched a documentary about it once.</p>
<p>I think the curve is really generous and I thought I wasn’t that bad…</p>
<p>Did you all get Nahuatl for the Aztec writing system?</p>
<p>The mayans had the most complex writing system among all the choices right?
And Han/Xiongnu is Rome/Huns.</p>
<p>I don’t think that was an option. It just asked which of the following was the Aztec writing system. I said Nahuatl, anyone else?</p>
<p>It was the Maya they used glyphs, that’s what it says that in my Kaplan review book anyway. I definitely got the voting one wrong I knew it wasn’t the US but didn’t know it was Britain.</p>
<p>No. The question was: which of the following was the Aztec writing system. Are you sure it said Mayan?</p>
<p>Oh idk now. I probably read the question wrong. If it was then idk what the Aztec’s writing system was.</p>
<p>Does anyone else remember that? Was it Aztec or Maya?
Also, when the Portuguese came to West Africa, were the West Africans eager to trade? Were they hesitant? Or did the Portuguese set up sugar plantations?</p>
<p>Did Tanzimat fail because of religious divisions or because it was too top down?</p>
<p>Were American colonial possessions in South America/Africa/Asia or the Pacific Basin?</p>
<p>There was a quote about reason and intellect…was that Enlightenment or Renaissance?</p>
<p>What is the result of writing systems before 500 CE…civilizations more likely to have a recorded history or more likely to have a ruling class?</p>
<p>what gave rise to christianity in the 4th Century CE? Constantine’s efforts or nomadic invasions?</p>
<p>There was also one about women doing cloth…</p>
<p>@Jackson
I said because it was too top down. Anyone else?
I said reason/intellect was Enlightenment.
Before 500 AD, I said having more knowledge? That seems right…
I was pretty sure it was Constantine. He adopted Christianity, and only one other emperor after him did not.</p>
<p>Did anyone else say that the women weaved cloth because they could do that while taking care of children?</p>
<p>There was a question of the governors and tribes getting power so the ruler got provincial nobles together? what was that?</p>
<p>Noo…the question was before 500 AD, what advantages did societies with writing have over societies without writing…
The two obvious choices were…
- Civilizations were more likely to have a recorded history.
- There was more likely to be a ruling class.</p>
<p>The other three didn’t make sense…which one did you pick of those two?</p>
<p>I got the other one for the Ottoman one and the same for the Enlightenment. </p>
<p>Others -</p>
<p>Were American colonial possessions in South America/Africa/Asia or the Pacific Basin?</p>
<p>What was the relationship between nomadic invaders in Europe and Christianity? I put that they folded Christianity into their religions but didn’t completely adopt it or something like that. </p>
<p>Also there was something on Unification of Germany.</p>
<p>Concerning the Aztec/Maya question, I could’ve sworn they had asked “which system of writing was the most complex”, which I’m almost absolutely sure was the Mayans.</p>
<p>You are right - Nahuatl is the language and writing of the Aztecs, but I don’t believe that was the question. The Aztecs’ writing system was extremely rudimentary and very unorganized, based on pictograms that were primarily symbolic and didn’t have a lot of concrete meaning.</p>
<p>-</p>
<p>American colonial possessions, I put Pacific Basin but looking at Wikipedia, surprisingly South America could’ve been an answer.</p>
<p>Women and cloth, the children answer seemed to make the most sense but I’m not positive.</p>
<p>Reason/intellect, definitely enlightenment. I was positive when it mentioned using reason over traditions and faith, which is pretty much a textbook definition.</p>
<p>The spread of Christianity, almost positive it was Constantinople. </p>
<p>For the Yeltsin quote I put the Berlin Wall, but I really don’t know squat about the Cold War so I wouldn’t be surprised if I was completely off.</p>
