<p>Do you guys remember an OPEN DOOR Policy question? I really don't and I fear that I might have bubbled it in wrong. Can someone confirm this? Is it near the beginning, middle or end?</p>
<p>^i really dont remember an open door question at all.</p>
<p>Spark notes has a scale. Google "Sparknotes scale history"</p>
<p>^ hes too lazy to provide a link ;)</p>

<p>^thanks guys. looks like i'm going to get a 780 or 790.</p>
<p>oh yeah, and i don't remember an open door question, either. i know there's one about it on the practice questions on collegeboard.com....</p>

[/QUOTE]
They are different in a sense that sat II is much more specific, but the ap ones are more generalized.</p>
<p>Okay, after freaking out for almost half a day, I have these questions:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>What was the answer to the question that involved Reconstruction? Was it troops in Tennessee or the appointment of black officials in South Carolina and Mississippi? Can you find justification for this?</p></li>
<li><p>Was the Post-WWI question (it was an "EXCEPT" question) answer Poland OR Czechoslovakia?</p></li>
<li><p>Movement to the suburbs: Was the answer the Veterans Administration loans OR was it the answer that involved race/racial stuff (in other words, white flight)?</p></li>
<li><p>Was the "necessary and proper" clause contradicted by the "supreme rule of the land" (choice A)? I really have no idea for this one.</p></li>
<li><p>What did the Constitution (1787) provide for? It was either that 2/3 of the states had to ratify amendments to make changes to the constitution, or that there was a system of Checks and Balances. The only thing is, while the first three articles of the Constitution do specify the roles of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government, article five specifically says that 2/3 must ratify.... so which one was it?! Please justify.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>And I second that-- I don't remember anything about Open-Door policy. You probably are confusing it with a practice exam.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for your responses!</p>
<ol>
<li>black officials</li>
<li>loans</li>
<li>states assume powers not dictated to fed gvt</li>
<li>i think someone said checks and balances.</li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li>poland. it didn't exist. it was a part of austria-hungary.
czechoslovakia was the effect of the breakup of the austro-hungarian empire.</li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li>rearmament of major powers.</li>
</ol>
<p>stockguru, it asked what did not happen after the treaty of versailles. poland was created out of Soviet Union and Germany territory and czechoslovakia was created also. therefore, these 2 did happen. rearmament of major powers did not happen because it only directed at germany.</p>
<p>What was the reasoning for the answers of:</p>
<ol>
<li>The rise of the suburbans</li>
<li>Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, New Negro</li>
<li>Massachussetts Bay relocation</li>
</ol>
<p>the New Negroes were seen invariably as men and women (mostly men) of middle-class orientation who often demanded their legal rights as citizens but almost always wanted to craft new images that would subvert and challenge old stereotypes. In 1916-17, however, Hubert Harrison founded the militant "New Negro Movement," in 1917 he founded the first organization (The Liberty League) and the first newspaper (The Voice) of the "New Negro Movement," and this movement energized Harlem and beyond with its race conscious and class conscious demands for political equality, an end to segregation and lynching, and calls for armed self-defense when appropriate. </p>
<p>^from Wikipedia. But I still don't know what the answer was...haha.</p>
<p>does anyone remember what the answer to the graph one was? I was trying to decide between the population quadrupling and immigration rising a lot from early 1840s to mid1850s; the population didn't (quite) quadruple so i went with the immigration rising</p>
<p>how is the "looking into one's heart for the truth" transcedentalism...wouldn't it be more pragmatism?...transcedentalism is more looking into nature...am i correct?</p>
<p>Pragmatism means that you're practical and do whatever works.</p>
<p>I didn't think transcendentalism was a very good choice for that passage either, but it made a ton more sense than any of the other choices.</p>
<p>that quote was a direct quote from emerson. it was obviously transcendentalism...search it on wikipedia and that quote comes up</p>
<p>ahhh darn it you're right....i just couldn't think clearly...it was my 3rd test...darn it i got camelot wrong too....</p>
