<p>You can call in earlier. But I forget the date. It's like $7.</p>
<p>its like July 1</p>
<p>umm no its not....its like june 27 or 28. july 1st is when score reports go out by mail</p>
<p>haha i did nothing lol</p>
<p>well the "like" in front of july 1 implied that there could be a 3-4 days margin of error, lol. no need to get worked up</p>
<p>for the DBQ, i used basically an extended riff on Hunter S. Thompson's "wave speech" and also the move from the counter culture of the '60s to the resignation of the next decade and embrace of conservatism.</p>
<p>For social I also talked about Mario Savio and the free speech movement.
and like the Port Hueron Doctrine
and how that knda stuff lead to the weathermen</p>
<p>NO MC QUESTIONS EVER!!!!! hahaha</p>
<p>yup. but honestly why would u wanna talk about it =P and essay questions supposed to be 48 hours, too. it hasn't been 48 hours!</p>
<p>Why does 48 hours matter, it's not like anyone else is getting the same MC questions in form B.</p>
<p>^actually, the DBQ has the 48 hour rule. the MC is reused each year i think; at least some of it</p>
<p>They're pretty serious about keeping the MC under wraps.</p>
<p>stressed!!! - If you had that much outside information, utilized the documents well, and crafted an organized essay, you should have no problem getting at least a 7.</p>
<p>yeah. i think they reuse the MC to ensure that a 5 from this year is the same as a 5 next year! or something like that</p>
<p>thanks star_s if i get a 7 on the dbq i could maybe get a 5. yay!!!</p>
<p>i talked about watergate as political instability in my dbq. does that make sense and did anyone else talk about that. the years was 64-75 and i pretty sure watergate was in there</p>
<p>yeah but how is watergate a result of the vietnam war?</p>
<p>MC- It was okey, maybe skipped 3-5, but I'm hoping my raw skore is 65+
( Messes up MC number 2 :()
For DBQ- I wrote about Domino Theory, Containment, Tet Offensive, My Lai Massacre, draft riots, how Martin Luther King broke with Johnson on Vietnam War, how Robert F. Kennedy was running for president when he made that speech, how the money used in Vietnam killed some of LBJ Great Society Programs, Gulf of Tonkin, and some others</p>
<p>For FRQ 3- I wrote about eli whitney, railroads, factory system, I also noted how the War of 1812 and the Embargo Act of 1807 encouraged New England's manufacturing, textile mills, increased production, etc; For the south i wrote how even though they had few steel and textile mills, their economy was concentrated on slavery and King Cotton</p>
<p>For FRQ 4- got worse- Wrote about race relations- how South disregarded Fourtheenth, Fifteenth, Amendment, Jim Crow Laws, Ku Klux Klan, ect
For economic development- little improvement- an increase in industrialization, sharecropping still a slavery like institution, railroads built, carpetbaggers invested in Southern business etc.</p>
<p>Do you think is enough to ensure a 5 I did put background info as well</p>
<p>yea...u did good on the MC and DBQ and the first FRQ. even if u messed up on the second FRQ, the other things should carry much weight. so i think u got a good chance.</p>
<p>thanks so much Redwood btw when i wrote got worse on the second FRQ I meant race relations got worse, but I know that was my weakest essay anyway</p>
<p>i posted this in another thread, but since more people seem to be coming here i decided to also post it here </p>
<p>okay so can someone give me a general scoring guideline for my 3 essays. im still freaking out
dbq: lyndon b. johnson's Great Society was pulled back by the war in vietnam, civil rights movements, mlk's assassination, robert kennedy's assassination, students for a democratic society, betty friedan and NOW, nixon's vietnamization, brief mention of watergate, public cynicism of the government, democratic national convention 1968. (3 + 1/4 pages)
frq choice #3: northeast became more industrial while south remained dependent on plantation life and slaves, no specific inventions mentioned but i did say "inventions," north's economy favored tariffs, south's against high tariffs i related this to the nullification crisis in 1833, erie canal, national road (2 pages)
frq choice #4: had no idea, mentioned briefly black codes and Jim Crow Laws, southern economy still dependent on black laborers, mentioned the muckrakers for a few sentences even though they were in the north (how bad does that kill me?), trust busting (does it even apply) and not much else</p>
<p>if anyone can give me HONEST grading guesses that would be extremely helpful
im so worried especially about the last one because of my errors.
thanks</p>
