June world history sat II

<p>cultural diffusion for japan</p>

<p>emperors for the monument</p>

<p>I'm feeling really bad about my performance now :(</p>

<p>when do we receive the scores?</p>

<p>if i did not sign the statement below the answer sheet, will my sat scores get cancelled?</p>

<p>yes, this test was unusually difficult..definitely much much harder than the AP tests</p>

<p>What was the answer for the map with southeast asia? Islam?</p>

<p>the Eurasian interaction question asked for before 1000 CE, so I figured Islam could've spread by then. i was torn between the two.</p>

<p>I remember the gunpowder question kinda; I thought it allowed the Tokugawa shogunate to come to power or whichever that was.</p>

<p>and the map was the extent of the ummayad empire.</p>

<p>i thought it was byzantine....... <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:EasternRomanEmpire.png%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:EasternRomanEmpire.png&lt;/a>
... It's byzantine... right?!</p>

<p>Ha, looks like Byzantine. I put Umayyad too, but Umayyad had a larger chunk of Spain and Africa than the Byzantine</p>

<p>does anybody else remember more questions?</p>

<p>I didn't get the one about the British colonization in India and Africa and the one about the Pre-Columbian America/Eurasia :I</p>

<p>haha i omitted taht one.</p>

<p>I said Byzantine for the map. I believe I was right.</p>

<p>Shiver me timbers, for I am wrong. blast!</p>

<p>Touche, CC members.</p>

<p>anything else??</p>

<p>for the southeast asia map, i'm pretty sure it's Christian, not Islam, because the map had Macao and the coast of Vietnam shaded. That indicates European colonization, because there are no Muslims in Vietnam or Macao.</p>

<p>but it was only in 1650 CE. I thought the Europeans were few, and more interested in trade than missionary work at that point, right?</p>

<p>was it in 1650?! hah i didnt even notice the year, when i took the test i was fuming over another test....
but if it was in 1650, taht means it was christian, since macau was colonized by Portugal in the early 1600s.</p>

<p>okay, a couple of comments about the questions I believe I might have gotten wrong...</p>

<p>for a japan question (about reasons for why it was not imperialized), what was the answer? I was between something about mineral resources and japan being devalued as compared with china</p>

<p>what was the first constitutional monarchy? I had no idea</p>

<p>and I said the umayyads for the map, but now I'm second-guessing myself. I really thought that there was a continuous strip across northern africa in the map, which led me to believe it was islam. not so sure now...just for personal knowledge, why would it be byzantine instead?</p>

<p>for the algeria question, what was the answer? I said soviet aid but know I am incorrect</p>

<p>finally...I think it was stirrups which showed cultural diffusion. This makes the most sense. Islam was largely forced on its followers and shows little to know cultural diffusion. the other option would then be christianity, but I know little of its diffusion paths--did the question say merely diffusion through eurasia or through other areas?</p>

<p>oh, and which crop led to the greatest displacement of people (or however it was worded; it was one of the first questions)?</p>

<p>huh? i know maize was an answer .. but tahts not the one to the q you're asking about</p>
