May SAT II US History 2012

<p>Lingering questions about the subject test :)</p>

<p>I skipped a lot- 7. And i already know i got two wrong :p</p>

<p>What'd you guys think?</p>

<p>I have a lot of questions about this test as well. If I was able to eliminate at least 2 or 3, was it good that I guessed? I didn’t skip any, but I eliminated answers and guessed for about 7-8 of them…ahh, who am I kidding, probably 10.</p>

<p>I’ve never taken this test before. I did many Sparknotes tests, extensive review, diagnostic tests, etc. IMHO, that test was pretty hard.</p>

<p>Yeah. I thought that was really hard - a lot harder than the practice tests I took in the collegeboard book. Maybe there’ll be a good curve then?</p>

<p>Either if you guys take apush?</p>

<p>Took APUSH with a teacher who didn’t prepare us well. Thought the questions were a little weird. What’s up with all the questions about Indians. Omitted about 6 or 7.</p>

<p>I’m currently taking APUSH with a fairly good teacher. The questions were really odd. Too many ones about Native Americans. Just really obscure things in general.</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m doing APUSH this year, but that was way harder than even APUSH questions. When I saw the fourth question about Indians, I freaked lol</p>

<p>There were so many questions about colonial and pre-colonial america.</p>

<p>Omg i thought i was the only one who freaked over the indians.
Im sorry college board- i dont remember which tribe we were temporarily allied with before we tried to get rid of them all…</p>

<p>I missed the vaccine one too :/</p>

<p>The quote about women - did you say the author would most likely support the cult of domesticity? I wasn’t sure if she was urging women to be role models at home or empowering women to get equal education and rights…</p>

<p>@adelice Me too! There were so many. Especially that one with the different Native American tribes and answer choices (the answer was Iroquois).</p>

<p>@nikitahh I agree. I put a lot more emphasis on 1800-1950, thinking that pre-colonial/colonial America would not be covered too much and that my APUSH class had spent so much time on it. Well, now I regret that!</p>

<p>@adelice It is cult of domesticity and Catherine Beecher. It’s talking about the whole Republican motherhood ideal.</p>

<p>@spkrap322 I missed the vaccine one. My gut feeling was polio (I believe that is the correct answer), and I ignored it :(</p>

<p>Agh Collegeboard. I got 770, 770, 740, 800 on my practice tests, but I am really worried. So many earlier questions, with native americans. So many random questions too. I found the practice tests relatively simple but the actual test was something else. On the upside, looks like there is going to be a generous curve.</p>

<p>@gtowner Yeah, my practice test scores were great, but those early questions were really discouraging. Hopefully the curve is really good, because that test killed me.</p>

<p>Lol. I guessed and said it was the Iroquois because it was the only tribe I knew. </p>

<p>@annue Same. I knew a lot about Jackson and the Reconstruction period. </p>

<p>What was answer to the vaccine one? I guess smallpox.</p>

<p>I took the practice tests from CB and got 740 and 750. This test was so different!</p>

<p>@RedPassion Yeah, I really studied Jackson. The vaccine one should be polio, based on cursory internet searches…I’d have someone check that.</p>

<p>Polio was a choice? Ergh.</p>

<p>Yeah, the practice tests had really good questions! This test had really obscure, nitpicky questions.</p>

<p>I answered polio for the vaccine one, Iroquois for the Indian one, and Catharine Beecher for the women one. Pretty sure on all of them. The Pequot War killed them, Apache and Seminole and navajo were more out west(seminole south).</p>
