<h2>If someone can find a quote that says Hamilton wanted the US to be a world power by means of a strong economy, then we have a really F'ed up question on our hands.</h2>
<p>LOL</p>
<p>"The accumulation of wealth was not Hamilton's goal; he wanted to encourage the use of private wealth for beneficial enterprises. Hamilton envisioned a STRONG ECONOMY in which EVERYONE COULD PARTICIPATE AND PROFIT."</p>
<p>Cool?</p>
<p>Yes there was question on the bessemer process...</p>
<p>So ranks, which do you think it is? That just says he envisioned a strong economy. But it says he wanted people to be involved as well.</p>
<p>I am completely split 50/50, that quote basically provided evidence for both.</p>
<p>Why the hell does collegeboard pull BS questions like this?</p>
<p>To make a thread 800 posts along on random college-prep websites?</p>
<p>Edit: Now we need to decide whether their goals were to aim for a strong SAT USH discussion or to get more people involved in talking about SAT USH.</p>
<p>~.~</p>
<p>ahah, anyway, I think we pretty much cleared up all the questions on the test except that one and the Madison/Jackson one, which I provided evidence for but some still disagree. That ones a tough one to reach a consensus on.</p>
<p>So what does everyone think they got?</p>
<p>I'm guessing 780-760 for me, I'm kinda ****ed not because of the score but because I made stupid mistakes on about 5 questions that would have got me 790/800.</p>
<p>I made a lot of stupid mistakes; I'm contemplating slapping myself till the end of time.</p>
<p>-6 (including .25 for each wrong) so Im hoping 800. However, if it was madison instead of jackson and strong economy instead of more people, then it will be -8.</p>
<p>I remember being 100% sure when I read that quote that the answer was Madison. Also, I was just about as sure that the answer was strong economy.</p>
<p>And if i recall correctly, the last question wasn't simply "which of the following was not a problem in the 1970s" i think it was something more specific. For some reason I'm thinking it said something with economic problems in the 1970s.</p>
<p>thats pretty funy char...you posted your want for an 800 on the 800th post. :X</p>
<p>and if it was something with economic problems, I think the answer was vietnam.</p>

<p>It did indeed say economic problems. I do not think it is Vietnam because Vietnam lasted untill 1973.</p>
<p>I just want 720+, I suck at US</p>
<p>AJ I think you may be wrong on both of those questions. I read up on them.</p>
<p>And that #800 thing is funny.</p>
<p>I also put army for that infamous question. I've read through your posts MED, and I am pretty sure that army is the correct answer. ICMB's were a major concern of the United States after they were used by the USSR to launch Sputnik in 1957.</p>

<p>hmmm, my instincs don't usually fail me like that, I saw that question and thought "federalist papers" before I even looked at the choices...odd.</p>
<p>yeah thermo-nukes were used to launch sputnik</p>
