Global Regents post discussion

<p>Just took it, started 3 hours ago and finished in about 2 hours 15 minutes. Didn't think it was that bad. For the thematic essay I talked about the printing press and Martin Luther and I talked about guns and the scramble for Africa and blood diamonds. For the DBQ I talked about Rwanda and Ukraine. What about you guys?</p>

<p>I did the printing press and Martin Luther as well! My second topic was nuclear weapons. For the DBQ I did Ukraine (I took Euro, so Stalin is like locked into my brain) and Cambodia, because we just reviewed Pol Pot like yesterday. I forgot who de Klerk was and I know it was obvious I just messed up that multiple choice! What’d you put for the M.C. question that gave you a diagram of the world economy and globalization and they asked you for a correct title of the cartoon? I said “Uncertain Path” but wasn’t totally positive. Overall, not a bad test…great thematic essay topic and DBQs are always easy to pull off.</p>

<p>That one was Nelson Mandela because de Klerk was associated with the apartheid I believe…For guilds I said the same as you, it felt right. It couldn’t have been the factory choice. I put temp for latitude as well. You probably did way better than you think! I think I got 5 M.C. wrong, a 5 on the first essay and a 4 on the DBQ. What grade are you in? Did you take Euro this year?</p>

<p>Yup haha! I guess we’re all in the same classes!!! Trig on the 21st, chem and spanish on the 22nd…Do you feel prepared? Which one are you most scared for?</p>

<p>Actually like exactly the same…I’m studying for trig right now. Over the last like week and a half I’ve been studying for chem and I’ve been getting like 88-93 on the practice regents every time, so I’m good with that. And Spanish is like not even a class, haha, it’s so easy. So I’m sure I’ll be fine. I just took a Math B practice test and I got a 96, but that’s the highest I’ve gotten so far. I usually get like 90-95. So I’ll just study for that right now, and study for chemistry tomorrow. Ugh. I just can’t wait for it to be over.</p>
