We finished Gilded Age before break, and are going to finish up Progressive Era before the final.
I just started studying for the final using the AMSCO book today. Ah, I’m so scared, because I need to do really well on the final to get an A in the class.</p>
where can we buy the book? I looked on amazon and its 200+ dollars. Is that how expensive it really is or is there somewhere else that I can buy? (even my local barnes and nobles didn’t have it for anything less)</p>
The thing that I found funniest about the exam last year was that my teacher SWORE to me that the only one or two of the questions would be past the Nixon era. We only touched a little on anything past watergate because she said that there was no way they would ever put that on the test.
Then exam day came along and what do you know? The DBQ was on NIXON!!!</p>
I ended the class with an A! I am so excited. This was the hardest class I have ever taken and probably the hardest class on campus (less people get As in APUSH with my teacher than even Physics C). I feel so successful! :)</p>
Ach! Just took my midterm. I had to get extra time for the essay, but I think I did fine on the multiple choice. And man, I wish I’d been able to nudge my marking period grade up to an A. An 89 isn’t bad, but…it’s just way too close. xD</p>
So my school made us give in the check, then I got reduced lunch and they gave me the check back, then apparently I couldn’t prove that I was supposed to have reduced lunch even though my mom sent all the stuff in and now I’m back to full lunch. They haven’t contacted me about paying for it. Should I assume it’s still covered? I don’t want to go remind them and then they say, “Oh yea… we can take your $87! Sure!”</p>
