<p>i think the curve will be pretty good because it was a hard test</p>
<p>according to the SAT2 OG, you can get a 800 with 13 wrong answers.</p>
<p>can anyone with a review book that tells how many points each score requires, can you tell me what one needs for a 700?</p>
<p>from the college board, it says a raw score of 78 and above is 800. idk about for 700 because i took a pic of the chart with my phone and it cut out everything below 720. haha but to get 720, need a raw score of 64</p>
<p>so -17 is an 800? there are 95 questions right??? soo if you omit none and get 13 wrong that’s an 800 :D</p>
<p>Hmm, I’m guessing I missed around 16, omitted 1, so that is a raw score of 74 which is 790?</p>
<p>Ugh, I would be much happier with an 800 (lol)</p>
<p>But I guess we can only just cross our fingers and wait until the 21st, unless someone knows the last ~14 questions.</p>
<p>there should be a good curve right? lol</p>
<p>For the one about the low cost of shipping + telecommunications </p>
<p>was the answer multi-national companies or was it jobs being shipped overseas to 3rd world countries? or were they the same answer?</p>
<p>i believe they were the same choice.</p>
<p>i have some questions that i’d like more definite answers for and i’ve also thought of some other questions we didn’t list yet. </p>
<p>what do you think the answers were for these questions (if only one answer given, that’s the one i gave and can remember):</p>
<ol>
<li><p>who initially supported the indian movement for independence? british-educated professionals or military officials?</p></li>
<li><p>period of 600-400 BCE, classical civilizations saw which of the following? I put important advancements in philosophy and religion</p></li>
</ol>
<p>3.something to do w/ buddhism? To find inner peace (or go thru pain to achieve peace??? Was this part of the same answer?)</p>

<li><p>Which monument was for a fallen ruler? pyramids @ Giza?</p></li>
<li><p>question about invading nations building off conquered ideas? answer: Mongols and China?</p></li>
<li><p>question that said something like “christianity, islam and buddhism were all widespread among classes but…?” the spread was accompanied by the conversion of rulers?</p></li>
<li><p>vaguely remember: Haiti/south america answers? guerilla warfare enlightenment? ideas/ideals of enlightenment?</p></li>
<li><p>comparison betw egypt and zhou? egypt established a dynasty before?</p></li>
<li><p>what was the cause of the carolingian decline, end of charlemagne’s empire? treacherous nobles (other people getting too powerful)?</p></li>
<li><p>what did the french revolution and bolshevik revolution have in common? is it spread their revolutionary ideals to other countries OR both failed in their original goals and were replaced by reactionary govts (i put latter answer but think now it may be former…not sure).</p></li>
<li><p>What was the example about byzantine and arabs meshing cultures? use of philosophical and scientific knowledge from byzantine to arabs OR that the greeks texts were translated into arabic???</p></li>
<li><p>Was the european women affected by the 19th century industrialization an EXCEPT question? i don’t think so but just checking.</p></li>
<li><p>What was NOT a reason for European imperialism/expansionism? desire for new foreign ideas???</p></li>
<li><p>What period had the greatest volume of trans-saharan trade? mali empire???</p></li>
<li><p>what was the reason that the US, europe and japan had economic downturns in the 1970s? oil OPEC or gas prices (were these part of the same answer???)</p></li>
<li><p>why did the eurasian nomads succeed? horse-mounted warfare (were they referring to the mongol invaders??) OR control of trade routes, safety of silk trade routes (pax mongolia)???</p></li>
<li><p>Meiji restoration was characterized by all of the following except: elimination of most foreign influences/ or opposition to foreign interference?</p></li>
<li><p>which people did not want to relocate (to move across the ocean??) hindus and animists? (other choices maybe were buddhism and jainism, christians and jews?) i’m just sorta vaguely remembering this question, and not sure if i saw it on a practice test.</p></li>
<li><p>question on Indus valley? historians can’t decipher their pictograms???</p></li>
<li><p>the devshirme system reflected what characteristics of the ottoman empire? multiethnic?</p></li>

</ol>

<li><p>It was the British-educated professionals. Gandhi received a British education.</p></li>
<li><p>Same.</p></li>
<li><p>Finding inner peace (nirvana). Pain doesn’t really have to do with Buddhism.</p></li>
<li><p>Yes. Since it was on the east coast of Africa, it would’ve been part of the Indian Ocean Basin trade.</p></li>
<li><p>It was the Pyramids.</p></li>
<li><p>I don’t remember this one… Anyone else?</p></li>
<li><p>Yes, the conversion of rulers.</p></li>
<li><p>The question asked what influenced revolutions in Haiti and S. America. The answer was Enlightenment ideals.</p></li>
<li><p>Egypt was before China.</p></li>
<li><p>I didn’t answer this one, but from what I’ve heard, it’s the treacherous nobles.</p></li>
<li><p>It was the latter. I’m fairly confident in this answer.</p></li>
<li><p>The Greek texts were translated into Arabic. When the Crusades happened, the Europeans rediscovered their past through these works because Islamic scholars liked the classical Europe’s knowledge and saved it. Europeans later had no idea of classical Greece/Rome until they encountered Arabic texts.</p></li>
<li><p>I don’t believe it was.</p></li>
<li><p>Yep, they didn’t really care about the areas they colonized anyway, so it’s not like they were looking for new ideas.</p></li>
<li><p>Umm, I don’t really remember this one… Maybe someone else can take a shot?</p></li>
<li><p>It was OPEC, apparently. I don’t think gas price increase was a choice, it might have been the same. I do remember that one of the other answer choices was inflation.</p></li>
<li><p>Horse-mounted warfare. When I answered this question, it seemed to me that they were asking in a way that implied how they suceeded in conquering the lands, not how they suceeded in administering/governing those lands.</p></li>
<li><p>Yes. The Meiji restoration was actually using foreign ideas. The Boxer Rebellion was the disastrous movement against foreigners that was a humiliating event for China.</p></li>
<li><p>I’m pretty sure that wasn’t on the test… It might have been on a practice that you did. The only question even remotely similar was who migrated to the Americas in recent years (I think it asked 1900+?).</p></li>
<li><p>Yup. The Indus Valley’s writing system hasn’t been decoded yet, and that’s why we don’t know very much about the civilization.</p></li>
<li><p>The subjects were multiethnic and from various backgrounds.</p></li>
<li><p>Was that an except question? I don’t remember the answer, but I’m pretty sure if it was EXCEPT, then the answer was NOT Buddhism. I seem to recall that the Mongols ruling China (the Great Khanate) liked Lamaist Buddhism because that religion granted them power and recognized them as legitimate rulers.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>1) not sure about 1, don’t think its british professionals</p>
<p>Should i send my score even though i’m currently a sophomore? I’m not sure how this whole thing works…</p>
<p>Didnt the Bolsheviks and Napoleon spread the revolutionary goals of communism and nationalsim respectively?</p>
<p>The Bolshevik Revolution did not fail in its goals. it succeeded in taking out the provisional government and making the first communist state in history.</p>
<p>and arent there colonies still in southeast Asia AFTER 2000? jamaica received its independence in 1962. What about Hong Kong and Macau?</p>
<p>when are the scores released :)?</p>
<p>June 21 according to Collegeboard. 8 more days of agony…</p>
<p>“and arent there colonies still in southeast Asia AFTER 2000? jamaica received its independence in 1962. What about Hong Kong and Macau?”</p>
<p>No, those aren’t still colonies. As wikipedia says, Hong Kong went back to China in 1997, and Macau in 1999…</p>
<p>Hong Kong and Macau were both leased to European countries, much like Alaska was initially leased to the United States by the Russians. Once the lease expired, the holding countries had to give up the colonies.</p>
