<p>New Deal: Remember the three Rs! Recovery, Relief and Reform.</p>
<p>Anyone know the names of some authors I should memorize?</p>
<p>^ I have the same question. I can’t remember all those random authors.</p>
<p>jacob riis - how the other half lives</p>
<p>alfred mahan thayer - influence of sea power upon history</p>
<p>Helen hunt jackson - Century of dishonor</p>
<p>McGuffey - Mcguffey readers</p>
<p>Harriet Beecher Stowe -Uncle Tom’s Cabin</p>
<p>and the femine mystique: Betty Friedman.</p>
<p>The Jungle- Upton Sinclair.</p>
<p>Don’t overlook the less important topics; last year there was an FRQ on unique Native American tribes and their interactions with each other and the different empires (France, Spain, England) during the colonial period.</p>
<p>the only thing I know is the Iroquois confederacy…during the colonial period</p>
<p>Does anyone know wat the DBQ and FRQs may be about?
(Rough estimates of course!)</p>
<p>What should be the strategy when it comes to skipping questions on the mc test? How many answers should I for sure eliminate before I take a shot at it? How many questions is a normal amount to skip for the mc section?</p>
<p>I honestly can’t even remember what I wrote, but I was so caught off-guard, and don’t suspect I did well. To be honest, I think I just started listing Native American tribes.</p>
<p>My grade turned out to be a 5, but the curve must have been insane on that one question
alone to the point that it was completely nullified.</p>
<p>The essays can be on virtually anything.</p>
<p>I have a question on the DBQs. When I cite from any document, do I use quotation marks and do i write (Document A) at the end??</p>
<p>^ No. At the end you just put (Doc.A). at the end.Look at examples of a written DBQ. That might help.</p>
<p>Thanks.
Another question… how hard is it to get like a 6 in DBQs and 5 in essays?</p>
<p>wait, so I’m kind of confused - how much of a penalty is there for wrong answers?</p>
<p>I’m sick.</p>
<p>I’m not sure if I should go tomorrow.</p>
<p>GAH this sucks</p>
<p>+1 for correct
-1/4 for wrong</p>
<p>any predictions about the DBQ?</p>
<p>Nothing past WWII,…maybe Progressives that would be so nice (I’m thinking something late 19th century to mid twentieth)</p>
<p>My class finished AMSCO before Spring Break (first week of April) and have been reviewing since. We’ve gotten about 15-20 practice tests and about two pages of possible/probable FRQ/DBQ topics (because our teacher is psychic and has been teaching so long that he always has a general idea of what the topics will be), not to mention four-hour long study groups with our teacher each night for about two weeks at a local restaurant. Last year our teacher’s pass rate was 78/79 kids.</p>
<p>I’m still a little worried about getting a 5, but I know I’ve got a 3, maybe 4, in the bank.</p>
<p>QUICK QUESTION:</p>
<p>is it okay to take a MIDDLE STANCE? as in, i agree with both sides of the argument?</p>
<p>i.e. the FRQ is something like, “Jacksonian government was democratic.” assess validity. and my thesis was like, it was democratic yet there were instances of demagogic overpower.</p>
<p>is that okay?</p>
