Nov. 3 SAT 2 US History

<p>For the Seperate But Equal question the answer was affirmative action</p>

<p>it was not subsidized lunches because that goes along with segregation. The white schools received subsidies while the black schools didnt</p>

Are you sure it was Ireland and Germany?</p>

<p>I thought they were asking about the SECOND wave of immigrants from southern europe. So I put Italy and Hungary.

</p>

<p>hmm i think its ireland and germany. even though hungarian immigrants increased, they didnt surpass irish, i dont think.</p>

For the religion one i put irish and english

</p>

<p>its definitely german.</p>

<p>Result of the Vietnam war was that it made people question US international involvement.</p>

<p>The Andrew Jackson one I put Peggy Eaton, because she's a women and that would have gone against Jackson's image of the common man.</p>

<p>omg...i got some very easy questions wrong...</p>

For "all means necessary" I put Malcolm X.

</p>

<p>dang, i thouht Malcom X was a friendly guy/civil disobedience/nonviolent protest or something, cause I remember my freshmen history teacher talked about him during the same unit as Gandhi...bleh I'm so stupid. thats 12 wrong answers so far. and we're not even done discussing.</p>

<p>Glueeater I'm pretty sure you're right about the Peggy Eaton affair, it involved he and madison i think? making fun of their wives about sex. something that had to do with that and so i thought that was definitely not a good example of "a common man" lol</p>

<p>Guys how is the raw score calculated
Is it (# Correct) - (# Incorrect/4) = x
???</p>

<p>oh, and there was one about "what is common sense about"</p>

<p>and what did hamilton and jefferson disagree about.</p>

<p>and something about "what did the westerners do because of their problems" i put made a political party.</p>

<p>and yeah, you do the raw score the same way as you do the normal sat raw score.</p>

<p>are you serious? affirmitive action i thought was like the epitome of relevance to that qusetion about races...i put subsidized lunches because I thuoght lunches had nothing to do with race issues...so black schools didn't receive sbsidies? wow that's lame. as was this stupid test.</p>

<p>hamilton and jefferson disagreed about the BUS National Bank and Thomas Paine's common sense is about how "common sense" it is to rebel against Britain</p>

<p>No it wasnt Peggy Eaton. He was defending her, which made him seem appealing to the common man.</p>

<p>THe right answer was details about his lifestyle. Although he presented an image of the common man, he lived on a large plantation with many slaves.</p>

<p>Cliffhanger: Affirmative Action has nothing to with segregation or separate but equal, however.</p>

<p>yeah i put lunches without even thinking about it.</p>

<p>but now that i think about it, AA was Nixon. way after brown vs. board.</p>

<p>2000th post yeahhh.</p>

<p>andrea, commonsense was about the independence of the american people. Thomas Paine wrote it i think arguing that it was improper and nonsense for a puny far away island (britain) to rule a much larger territory located thousands of miles away.</p>

<p>and yeah kidchicago you're right..im so stupid. i need to think more during tests.</p>

<p>the peggy question and the fact that he defended the woman is sooo stupid and shouldnt have been a test question...why do they like testing extraneous parts of history that aren't significant AT ALL. they're more humorous if anything..</p>

<p>What did you guys put for the Legacy of New Deal Question?</p>

<p>that was really tricky.</p>

<p>I left 6 blank. I probably got 5 or so wrong.</p>

<p>yes thats what i put. and i put the bank too.</p>

<p>legacy of new deal. hmm. i sort of remember this. but what were some choices. i think i put "the federal government helped people economically" or something. because ever since FDR, the government has become more liberal. social security, unemployment insurance, medicare/medicaid etc etc.</p>

<p>What was the one about the New Deal and ecological programs?</p>

<p>I put Public Works Administration but it probably was the CCC.</p>

<p>Cliffhanger: Affirmative Action has nothing to with segregation or separate but equal, however."</p>

<p>-kid Chicago, affirmative action has least to do with seperate but unequal which makes it the answer it asked for "LEAST relevant"</p>

<p>and the New Deal was CCC because the CCC planted trees and opened up national parks and stuff like that</p>

<p>i left 6 blank...and looks like i got like 15 wrong...i'm not even in the 700s now.....great....well actually i might be but probably not over 730 like i wanted.</p>

<p>is this the curve for EVERY US History SAT II? Do you think there's any chance that it could be lower for this one...I thought I had done well but now that I see all the "right" answers I didn't do well at all...did you guys think this test was harder (if you took it for the 2nd time)? This was my second time taking it and the first time (June) i got 600...didn't do any studying though. so i can't say if this was easier than June.</p>

<p>i also put ccc for that one.</p>

<p>well i took one in May and it was harder than the one in May...this one had many extraneous questions -_-</p>
