OCTOBER SAT Subject Test: US History

<p>Btw - Yup, Dawes Act was the correct answer.
I put overproduction as the main problem farmers faced, because I remembered United States set up the Open Door policy and stuff to acquire markets where they could sell the surplus.</p>

<p>OH yeah! I put transportation, last minute. D, I think.</p>

<p>"Ante" should have given it away. Do you remember what the question was for that topic?</p>

<p>Mr. Prez - I had something about transportation, but then I realized the question was referring to the post-war period, so I changed it to something else.</p>

<p>Post revolutionary war, right? Idk, I just thought of Transcontinental Railroad and put transportation as the answer.</p>

<p>You're right, COllegehelllp, it should have given it away. <em>smacks forehead against wall</em></p>

<p>Antebellum = before the civil war. I can't remember the question or I would tell you what I got.</p>

<p>Post Civil War, I thought. I know Clay's American System called for transportation as "internal improvements," but I wasn't sure if that continued 1860+</p>

<p>Did you guys get Iroquois or Powhatan for the Native American alliance question?</p>

<p>Also, the only thing that did not try to restrict African Americans from voting was a loyalty oath?</p>

<p>Poisonous - Was it really to style after European armies? I was debating between that and the money one; I ended up picking the latter because I didn't think American revolutionary soldiers fought like Europeans. Didn't they do guerilla tactics and what not?</p>

<p>I put Iroquois Confederacy. I put loyalty oath. :)</p>

<p>I had Iroquois and loyalty oath.</p>

<p>MP - militias would have been a lot cheaper than an army. The Continental Army was actually, in many ways, modeled after the British army (uniformed, European formations, etc.). The guerilla warfare was kind of an on-the-side thing for an added advantage, I think. But what do I know?</p>

<p>The American System was really only a big deal in the 1820-30's. Antebellum is definitely before the civil war:</p>

<p>antebellum</a> - Definition from the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary</p>

<p>By the way, was the second to last one, the one about US involvment in Cambodia, the choice with Khmer Rogue in it? Thats what I guessed.</p>

<p>Yea I put the Iriquois and loyalty, but the Powhatan could also have worked..</p>

<p>I put to cut of supply lines, if that's the problem you are talking about</p>

<p>I got the same answer, but apparently another name for the Iroquois Confederacy is "Five Nations," wasn't that an option as well?</p>

<p>It was "Five Tribes"</p>

<p>No, it was the five civilized tribes, which were the americanized tribes around the Jacksonian era.</p>

<p>haha close enough</p>

<p>The U.S. bombed Cambodia because the North Vietnamese built supply lines through the neighboring country. I don't remember that question on the test, but I'm almost positive that is the reason why Cambodia, and later Laos, were targeted by the Nixon administration.</p>

<p>Yeah, the Cambodia question was about cutting supply lines.</p>

<p>I always get confused between the Five Nations and the Five (Civilized) Tribes, but I'm sure the other option was the Five Tribes.</p>

<p>:P</p>

<p>I remembered them from the PR AP US book lol.</p>

<p>Got the cambodian one wrong then :*(, we never got there in my US History class.</p>
