OCTOBER SAT Subject Test: US History

<p>Yep, it was Ceasar: César</a> Chávez - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</p>

<p>This test was sooo much harder than the physics. I think I left 5 blank, including the invention and Caesar Chavez. </p>

<p>I would be happy with a 750.</p>

<p>WHat was the answer to the MLK Jr. Quote?</p>

<p>The answer is Ghandi.</p>

<p>Darnit. I hadn't the slightest idea what Gandhi had said, so I guessed.....</p>

<p>Well MLK followed Ghandi's nonviolent civil disobedience :p</p>

<p>It seemed like there were a lot of questions on the 60s and 70s, more 'recent' history than what I was expecting...</p>

<p>Can anyone confirm that African Americans didn't go north because of AA newspapers? Or was the answers unions?</p>

<p>I don't remember, sorry, phoenix. Guess not that many took US History after all.</p>

<p>Oh, the supreme court decision one- was it something vs. Carr (E) ?</p>

<p>I said that the erroneous reason was because unions were open to them. I'm not positive, but I don't think that unions like the AFL were open to African Americans in 1910; however, I do think that black newspapers may have published articles discussing less racial discrimination/higher wages in the North.</p>

<p>I'm not sure, though.</p>

<p>^ Same as you. I guessed.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the antebellum questions? I knew that "ante" meant "pre," but for some reason I just figured that it was pre Civil Rights Movement...</p>

<p>I can't remember the questions, but if anyone would like to go over them, I'd appreciate it.</p>

<p>antebellum means before the Civil War</p>

<p>Right, but there was a question about the significance of the antebellum period, I believe. I think I chose something pertaining to Evangelicals, and I was wondering if I got it right.</p>

<p>Haha I missed the grape question, I put George Meany. I was stuck between him and Chavez. The only other one I didn't really know was "the Century of Dishonor", but based off of the name I put the native american struggle, and it turned out to be right. I vaguelyremember the antebellum question, but I can't remmber what I put or what it was about.</p>

<p>Yeah, Century of Dishonor was about American Indians. </p>

<p>Another one I wasn't sure about was the Continental Congress question, by process of elimination, I was left with the delegates choosing the army because it was cheaper, however that didn't seem right.</p>

<p>^
Do you remember the choices for that Cont. Congress question?</p>

<p>Much harder than the practice tests I took in the subject test books. I'm thinking -8 to -12.</p>

<p>I can't remember the question for the continental congress one, what was it about?</p>

<p>I agree, it was more difficult than the ones in the practices tests, but I kind of expected it.</p>

<p>I'm 90% certain labor unions didn't open up to blacks in the early 20th century, and besides, I don't think labor unions would have been a compelling reason to move north. They would move for the jobs or other reasons prior to being integrated into the unions.</p>

<p>Edit: Poisonous, the question asked why the Cont. Congress funded a central army.</p>
