June 2010: World History

<p>oh! there was also a minoan&mycenaean question. i put they were in the center of trade on their Crete island?</p>

<p>also another question on indus valley. i put historians cant decipher their pictograms orwhatever.</p>

<p>yea seahawks, i put dutch not interested in converting</p>

<p>I had the same two answers as you. Generally, when in doubt on a history test, the generic “trade” answer is right.</p>

<p>same here. the center of trade and can’t decipher thier ancient language or soemthig</p>

<p>what was the one about the devshirme</p>

<p>i remember tha the balfour declaration was british approval of a jewish homeland in palestine.</p>

<p>who said "i found the french crown in the gutter and i picked it up with the tip of my sword?–> Napoleon?</p>

<p>@gohackers i remember the answer choice for guerilla warfare but i remember that not being the correct answer. I also remember circling bolivia and columbia as 20th century countries that underwent revolution</p>

<p>I think the “guerrilla” one was actually enlightenment ideals. Look at Simon Bolivar and the Haitian guy</p>

<p>"i found the french crown in the gutter and i picked it up with the tip of my sword-- was it napoleon?</p>

<p>i agree with @patrick, Japanese were isolationist because they feared western influence… Since the dutch were strictly focused on trade they trusted no “proselytizing” would take place</p>

<p>@ mattiboi. for the two queestions you’re talking about I answered the guerilla warfare and “mexico and cuba” respectively… am i wrong? someone confirm the answers to those 2 questions plz</p>

<p>"i found the french crown in the gutter and i picked it up with the tip of my sword-- was it napoleon? </p>

<p>^^that’s what i put as well; i think that was the only one that made sense.</p>

<p>was the answer to the one about mahayana and theraveda differences- Bodhisattvas? </p>

<p>ugh wow that was awful.
i was considering canceling, but seeing how everyone else thought it was pretty difficult, i probably wont.</p>

<p>I was considering canceling too-- but with score choice, if we don’t do well, we don’t have to send it right??</p>

<p>yes, it was bodhisattvas, we confirmed that earlier today. I also said enlightenment ideals, I don’t remember guerilla warfare happening all the time in latin america. napoleon said the thing about the crown, it makes sense because after the revolution nobody was in power.</p>

<p>The quote is from Napoleon, it was on about how he became emperor of France.</p>

<p>I got around 3 wrong for sure just by checking this forum and omitted none… But that test was harder than the AP exam… Jeez. The curve better be lenient ><</p>

<p>what about the devishme?</p>

<p>i said the devishme showed the diversity of the ottoman empire. because they took Christian boys from their families for the army and the empire was islamic.</p>

<p>Devishirme = recruiting janissaries (just looked it up)
i don’t remember the choices… but I think I but B XD</p>

<p>^I put devishirme as the diversity of the Ottoman Empire since the members of the Janissaries came from Christian families. </p>

<p>I guessed none for the AP test, but I guessed on about five questions on the SAT. SAT:WH was much more difficult IMHO.</p>

<p>Considering the nature of CC members, it’s highly probable that the curves will be very, very lenient for this exam.</p>

<p>yea i put deveshirme as the multiethic or something like that</p>

<p>what was the one about Queen Elizabeth and planting trees?</p>

<p>also the one about the protected people? was it jews and christians?</p>
