<p>Did you guys ever get a verdict on the question near the beginning when a quote was given about something being passed in congress and options being Louisiana Purchase by Jefferson, and mexican cession by either polk or tyler? I would have gone for the Louisiana purchase but I remember in the quote it said something about something that didn't pass the first time it was done, which probably refers to the debate about Mexican cession; then I was confused on whether it was Polk or Tyler. I put Polk but I'm not sure at all.</p>
<p>I think that the quote was about Jefferson and the Louisiana Purchase; Polk was involved in the Mexican American War.</p>
<p>Edit: I'm not sure whether you're asking one or two questions. There was a quotation about something passing two houses and I think that was the Louisiana Purchase. Additionally, there was a question about why Polk won, I believe, and it was because he wanted to expand.</p>
<p>I'm nearly certain the quote near the beginning was about Jefferson; it mentioned, or evoked something, about it being unprecedented, and dropped the hint it was something the country would never have the opportunity to get again. Only the Louisiana Purchase fit these two criteria properly.</p>
<p>I think the Polk question was because he was an ardent expansionist; "54-40 or fight" was his campaign slogan, after all.</p>
<p>While I was spacing out during AP Spanish, a few more questions popped into my mind.</p>
<p>The quote about a man leaving his wife for a foreign land, I said a Chinese searching for gold?</p>
<p>Regarding ways to prohibit African Americans from voting, the odd one out was the loyalty oath?</p>
<p>Yes it was Chinese and yes it was loyalty oath. I don't know what a gerrymander was but loyalty oath I'm pretty sure wasn't used.</p>
<p>Yup, I used the same logic.</p>
<p>I've figured out that I got 5 wrong so far, hopefully the curve allows me an 800. Last one I'm unsure of is the steam boat question. I think it asked how the invention primarily benefited the country, and I chose that it regulated trade between eastern cities. Anyone else?</p>
<p>Gerrymandering is delineating districts in a certain way to mitigate the effects of a vote block. That is, like Tom DeLay redrawing the lines in Texas to split a large Democrat bloc into two districts.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember that question about what the women's rights movement entailed? I don't know if that was even remotely how the question was phrased, but the choices had to do with child labor, African Americans, and a few others things. I chose AA's as the odd one out.</p>
<p>Oh yeah, I remember that question but I completely forgot what I put lol.</p>
<p>Yea, I think there was one that didn't fit the time period. Its hard for me to remember now though.</p>
<p>It was not African-Americans, because I remember that women's rights and abolitionism/civil equality were interlinked. Try the equal rights amendment, instead. That wasn't until the 1970s.</p>
<p>I thought equal rights amendment started during the roaring twenties...</p>
<p>Didn't the question ask about early 20th century, which would imply before 1920?</p>
<p>Wait, which question are we talking about?</p>
<p>It was something about women's rights, but I barely remember the question. I think I might have put the Equal Rights Amendment becuase I knew that it was never passed in the end.</p>
<p>Just a reminder: no test questions or parts theirof to be posted in any form.
Refer to the sticky.</p>
<p>Soooooooooo, how'd ya'll do?</p>
<p>(My score was lower than my first attempt. 'Nuff said)</p>
<p>My on got a much lower score than expected. Anyone else in the same boat?</p>
<p>I meant son of course.</p>
