**June SAT U.S. History Post Test Discussion**

<p>For the assembly-governor question, I put that assemblies grew in power because of pursestring control (think MA Circular Letter). Is that right?</p>

<p>Also, why DIDN’T spain colonize? I got it down to european dominance and increasing treasury and chose the latter.</p>

<p>was the answer european dominance? i put that</p>

<p>I thought it was christianizing everyone. They definitely wanted the gold and silver from the Americas. Not sure about European dominance…I chose between those two…</p>

<p>It was european dominance. they wanted to colonize for increasing treasury. That was the whole point…</p>

<p>They sought to christianize the people of the Americas, so that’s not it.</p>

<p>what was the board of trade answer. anyone know?</p>

<p>can someone give me the choices for the spain one again i know i put the right answer just cant remember it</p>

<p>Darn. I originally put that too, and it makes so much sense. I thought about it too mercantilisticly.</p>

<p>What about the assembly-governor question?</p>

<p>What was the answer?</p>

<p>Was it about the assembly using money to control the governor at his expense?</p>

<p>Can someone please explain this to me?</p>

<p>Can I simply choose to not send my score so colleges won’t be able to see my low score in U.S. History?</p>

<p>Or do I have to cancel…? :confused: I would rather not because I did well on another subject test.</p>

<p>For the assembly-governor question, I put that the assemblies controlled the money bills, and were therefore able to gain power at the governors expense. Board of trade doesn’t make sense because the british government had complete control over trade.</p>

<p>Depends on which colleges you want to apply to. Check if they have score choice. Most do, but I know that UPenn doesn’t, which means all scores are sent.</p>

<p>The assembly one was i got that they initially overshadowed governor but then took a lesser role</p>

<p>YESSS, thank you floobert we’ve had all the same answers pretty much. Thanks for the clarification.</p>

<p>For the last one (#90) who said the quote???</p>

<p>No, it’s that they used money at the governor’s expense.</p>

<p>Several questions made me literally laugh out loud, proctor probably thought I was mentally ■■■■■■■■.</p>

<p>That John Adams quote about “I cannot but laugh” concerning womens’ rights always gets me.</p>

<p>But they NEVER overshadowed the governor, who was usually royally appointed. “Democracy” wasn’t really a British thing.</p>

<p>How about the New England one? About how local affairs were decided on? I put town meetings, mostly because I had no idea.</p>
