<p>C is correct!</p>
<p>Anyone want to go next?</p>
<p>The doctrine of nullification stated that:
(A) legal immigrants may be deported when they fall into a state of destitution
(B) Congress may override an executive order with a two-thirds majority vote
(C) the government may take control of a bank if its cash reserves fall below a certain percentage of its total deposits
(D) municipal and county governments may rescind licenses granted by the state
(E) a state may repeal any federal law that it deems unconstitutional</p>
<p>Bonus: Who is credited with creating this doctrine?
Another bonus: With which president is the issue of nullification most associated with?</p>
<p>E!!! oh but i forgot who created this… UGH I AM FORGETTING EVERYTHING</p>
<p>I think the answer is E. Is it Calhoun?</p>
<p>Or maybe Pres. Jackson… I’m not sure.</p>
<p>It is associated with President Jackson. Calhoun was never President.</p>
<p>John C. Calhoun came up with Nullification. Jackson was president at the time, but he opposed the doctrine of nullification.</p>
<p>Calhoun created the doctrine, and Jackson was president during that time. One of the important things that my teacher said to remember about Jackson was that he greatly expanded the power of the executive, much more so than any previous president had. (The rest of this is paraphrased from Princeton Review, 103-104.) The Tariff of 1828 caused Calhoun to publish his paper outlining nullification. This ticked off many states, and nullification was discussed in the south particularly. The Tariff of 1832 was passed to try and fix things, but it didn’t lower rates enough and South Carolina (Calhoun’s home state) nullified it. Jackson had the Force Bill passed, which allowed him to use force to enforce the tariff. However, a compromise was reached and the situation was diffused. </p>
<p>The main issue with nullification seems like it’s states’ rights, and how those rights compare to the power of the federal government.</p>
<p>Yes, and the Whig Party was created partly out of a fear of the growing power of the executive branch under “King Andy.”</p>
<p>So. What do we think about the SAT subject test? =]</p>
<p>So Calhoun did make the doctrine. Oh the subject test…I felt so stressed out I decided to pay 26 extra dollars just to change the date…1 hour before the tests.</p>
<p>Sup guys, I was looking through Larry Krieger’s Essential Content and I realized he left out the politics of the forgettable presidents (Stalwarts and Half-Breeds, etc.). I trust everything Larry does because he’s the best in the business, but do you guys think it’s necessary to review up on the forgettable presidents? (I really don’t want to xD)</p>
<p>I’m using Essential Content and I think you’ll be fine. I haven’t seen any MC questions on those topics.</p>
<p>i know ill get a 5 no sweat</p>
<p>just look up a couple study guides if you need help</p>
<p>Honestly, I might look up the Era of Forgettable Presidents, because it’s just that-forgettable. Even if it’s not on the test, you’ll feel more prepared. It’s anxiety provoking going into the test knowing that there’s stuff you really don’t know.</p>
<p>Yeah, agree with mirvinvitela.
APUSH test next week, yeah!
Teacher had class take practice test, I got 80% on MC.
What is the curve to get a 5 on this exam? I tried to find it online, and it told me some ridiculously low score that led to total disbelief. Can anyone else clarify the curve for me?</p>

this is the scoring from 2006. Of course, it could have changed, but it gives you a general idea</p>
<p>80% is really good. After studying, you’ll probably do better on the actual exam. It would give you breathing room for the free response.</p>
<p>My APUSH teacher says you need a 76% overall to get a 5, which isn’t bad. 61/80 MC and average of 11.5-12/15 on the writing.</p>
<p>Whoever mentioned the Era of Forgettable Presidents, that’s the best phrase I’ve ever heard, and probably the most accurate.</p>
