<p>What did you think?</p>
<p>It was okay, I found it a bit tougher than the four or five practice tests I took. Kind of disappointed because I was hoping for an 800 
but hopefully still pulled off high 700s. The fourth question, the Paul Revere portrait, threw me off so I wasn’t feeling so confident from the start.</p>
<p>It was meh, you either knew the answer or not. I know I for sure missed at least three…</p>
<p>What was the book that criticized middle class life?</p>
<p>As for the Paul Revere portrait, what was the answer? @_@ I put the answer that didn’t directly correlate with the portrait, but I wasn’t sure at all.</p>
<p>I think put Main Street for the book that criticized middle class life.</p>
<p>Paul Revere I was so back and forth I ended up skipping it. I saw no hint of “interest in consumer products” or whatever that choice was, but also didn’t think the author was condescending to the working man or showing Revere as a skilled artisan. This question bothered me so much…probably over thinking it…</p>
<p>Yeah I ended up putting the consumer products one. The question was asking which one the portrait couldn’t be used as evidence for the statement, so I just went with that one. :/</p>
<p>put condescending the common man because the portrait gives no evidence of this.</p>
<p>I put Grapes of Wrath (or was it Great Gatsby) for the book question but I think the right answer was Main Street…</p>
<p>I said the portrait didn’t portray Paul Revere with condescension.</p>
<p>How many times did you guys take it? This was my first time and I am very unhappy with how I did. (I have only taken one year of US history and am currently taking the second so I didn’t learn much of the content on the exam).</p>
<p>I also put Grapes of Wrath, but it’s definitely wrong. xD It’s a book about poor farmers during the dust bowl so…</p>
<p>This was my first time taking it, and I’m not very happy about how I did either. But I don’t think I did too badly considering since I haven’t studied US History since April and didn’t study at all.</p>
<p>I put the one about condescension on the portrait question because if anything, it seemed that Copley painted Revere positively. And plus, it shows Revere holding a very fine teacup, so I guess that voided the consumer products answer. </p>
<p>Unfortunately, I managed to get two incorrect answers. </p>
<ul>
<li>I thought Dollar Diplomacy was a Hoover program (go ahead and laugh, it’s ok)</li>
<li>For some strange reason I thought the Kansas-Nebraska Act repealed the Compromise of 1850, and not the Missouri Compromise</li>
</ul>
<p>Out of curiosity, did anyone try to use the map of pre/post 1850 railways to try and answer a previous question about which city’s population surged due to the development of railways? I think doing so would have misled you since the map showed a heavy density of railroads in both Boston and Chicago. But if you knew that most of Boston’s immigrant population came from over the pond, I guess that would have left you with the correct answer.</p>
<p>Was anyone a little bit confused on the question regarding which action was justified with a “strict constructionist” policy? I managed to get it down to Jackson’s veto of the Maysville Road Bill, and Madison’s call for a draft in 1812. My primary fear stemmed from how my APUSH teacher told the class that Jackson technically vetoed the bill because he simply wanted to tick off Henry Clay, but he also said that Jackson’s official reason was that the road would have been completely in Kentucky, and was thus a state responsibility. As for the other answer, I had no idea if Madison called for a draft during the war.</p>
<p>Crap, I read that Revere question wrong -_-
I was totally off guard when there were 90 questions. The practice tests were so easy and were not that long. I got too cocky and didn’t study. 
I thought the cartoons were funny.
Also, wth was the answer to that question about like women’s roles in whatever century. It was near the endish</p>
<p>@ShannanSaurus,
What women’s question? Could you be a bit more specific…?</p>
<p>@Rawit,
Don’t worry, I’m pretty sure I put that the Hudson River School was an educational experiment… 
and that Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr was a transcendentalist (he had the “common law is not logic” quote).</p>
<p>The railways one confused me, because I knew that the north was more industrial, but I also thought riverboats were pretty much on their way out by that point, right? I ended up choosing the one that said the south didn’t rely on them though… can anyone confirm if that was correct?</p>
<p>@Cricket123
It was talking about their roles changing and some of the answers were like about property and jobs and voting in school elections</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure it was Andrew Jackson’s veto.</p>
<p>I also got those two questions wrong, dollar diplomacy I put Theodore Roosevelt. xD Was torn between him and Taft…</p>
<p>And wasn’t it about womens’ roles in the early 1800s? I think I put that they were made to stay at home for the family or something.</p>
<p>For the women during WW 2 question, I said that more married women went out to join the work effort.</p>
<p>@Rawit…right there with you on the strict interpretation question…I ended up putting Jackson’s veto of the Maysville Road Bill. I had the same issue as you because I recalled Amsco emphasizing that he vetoed it because it was to be built in Clay’s home state…anyway in the end I think that was the best choice</p>
<p>A few from the top of my head, anyone remember answers?</p>
<p>What best described the U.S. economy from 1945 through 1970?</p>
<p>Similarity between Hamilton and Jefferson?</p>
<p>Sears catalogue question</p>
<p>Tammany Hall cartoon</p>
<p>What city experienced the most growth from building of railroads?</p>
<p>What pair of cities grew the most as a result of the Erie canal</p>
<p>Result of Native Americans’ contact with Europeans?</p>
<p>The lend-lease policy, the Yalta Conference, and the ___ papers/essays something like that best describe?</p>
<p>I think dollar diplomacy was Taft becauese I remember reading something about how he changed TR’s big-stick policy to Dollar diplomacy.
Also stupid question which state was the one that didn’t secede from the union? I put TN first and then changed it to KY. =/</p>
<p>@ShannaSaurus,
I agree with Rawit, I think it was that married women helped more.</p>
<p>@starchywinky,
Do you mean the issue women pushed for in the 1800s? I thought that was suffrage… Or are we talking about different questions…?</p>
<p>@cpctc1,
I also put the Maysville Road Bill. I thought it was the best answer as the other answers were the actions of presidents which went against the Constritution.</p>
<p>@videgameaddict,
I’m pretty sure it was Kentucky (I stupidly put Arkansas).</p>
<p>Definitely Taft for dollar diplomacy and Kentucky for didn’t secede</p>
<p>I think we’re talking about different questions. xD</p>
<p>The Sears catalog one, I think I put the one about department stores being the wrong one.</p>
<p>Similarity between Hamilton and Jefferson - I pondered over this one for the longest time and ended up putting the one about educated elite or something? The others just seemed too impossible. Not sure about this one.</p>
<p>Tammany Hall - Credit mobilier?</p>
<p>Erie canal - Was buffalo one of the answers? I put whichever had buffalo.</p>
<p>Native Americans - dependency on European trade goods?</p>
