You know guys, I'd hardly say that "disappeared continent" is the best answer for Pangaea. When you say "disappeared continent" I think Atlantis. Pangaea didn't disappear; it just split up. The answer choice with something like "connected landmass" sounds by far like the better answer to me.

<p>There was only one answer choice (E) that made it clear that Pangea was an ancient supercontinent. I don't know exactly what it said, but how does this answer sound?:</p>
<p>Q: What was Pangea?
A: An ancient connected landmass</p>

<p>I'm not sure about that. Taxation, in the form of the tithe for instance, had been around for more than a millenia. It's true that the monetary system was rudimentary, but the idea of taxation was well developed.</p>
<p>I think we need to do some more research.</p>
<p>Hah, there was one question that literally asked what was the cold war.</p>

<p>yeah, there was one super-easy question on the basic definition cold-war</p>
<p>Hah, thanks guys. If only I used my memory to study for the test. Oh well, I don't think it'll matter, I would be happy with a score above or equal to 750.</p>
<p>Yeah, wasn't the answer bipolar equilibrium?</p>

<p>rightnow, i am just about to go through the indexes of Barron's book, and see which term seems familiar to me on the Satuday's test</p>
<p>Does anyone want</a> to sift through this and see what the answer to the town question is?</p>
<p>I'm almost positive I remember a question on the Balfour declaration.</p>
