<p>Don't sweat 7 skipped questions. The thing about the US history exam is that you're not expected to know EVERY question that CollegeBoard poses. Basically, you can afford to skip 7 and get 5 of the ones you answered wrong to still be in the 780+ range.</p>
<p>I said for Debs that people should share the national income? I thought that was more reasonable than the national government holding resources because Debs was also a union leader wasn't he?</p>
<p>It was Northwest Ordinance...and I said Texas and the state under Missouri were the ones to be admitted as slave states.</p>
<p>For the two states on the map, it was Arkansas and Texas I think. Or that's what I put --;;</p>
<p>And for the Debs questions, I put the national assumption of the resources and such because not only did Debs stress that he was running not as a labor leader but as a socialist, but also because socialism refers to the communal ownership and responsibility for production.</p>
<p>But who knows, I've been wrong on Subject tests plenty of times...</p>
<p>what I had:</p>
<p>clinton => health care
eugene debs => nat govt controls resources (socialist)
personal income tax => late 1800's early 1900s? (progressive era? not sure)
washington => non-involvement in foreign affairs</p>
<p>what about the one that had transcendentalism as an answer choice?</p>
<p><em>edit</em>
malcolm x => "none of this sit in, drive in, etc. "
reagan => deregulating business
johnson => domino theory
picture of women in factory => factory workers
"californy" poem => senator(?) who opposed mexican war
war of 1812 => eliminated federalists
republicanism as an answer choice
ghost dance => spiritual movement</p>
<p>for the transcendentalism as an answer choice i put the transcendentalism. yah. but for the none of this sit in drive in one, i said it was washington... i dont know though. i dont know enough about malcolm x.</p>
<p>hahaha im so worried about this</p>
<p>What is the typical curve like for US? Also, what do you guys believe is the most you can get wrong for: </p>
<p>750?
700?</p>
<p>I think it helped a lot that I'm studying the Civil War for Academic Decathlon right now. They put in the Hudson River School and I was like, "I know what that is!"</p>
<p>to snipez:
(the ones i answered too)</p>
<p>clinton => health care<same, i'm="" 80%="" sure="" that's="" right="" eugene="" debs=""> nat govt controls resources (socialist) <same washington=""> non-involvement in foreign affairs <same picture="" of="" women="" in="" factory=""> factory workers<same "californy"="" poem=""> senator(?) who opposed mexican war <same republicanism="" as="" an="" answer="" choice="" <same="" ghost="" dance=""> spiritual movement<same</same></same></same></same></same,></p>
<p>the one with the answer choice transcendentalism, i chose that.</p>
<p>for the map with the 2 states i put 5&6 which i think were kansas and nebraska but i guessed.</p>
<p>for the one about johnson, was domino theory a choice? Because i remember putting down "put many us armed forces into battle" or osmething like that</p>
<p>same...I put down put ground forces into battle</p>
<p>slaves or tobacco most important to virginia in 1600s</p>
<p>what was the question on johnson/domino theory/ground forces?</p>
<p>I believe the domino theory is about if one nation fell to communism, then all the other nations in that region would also fall under communism.</p>
<p>And the ghost dance was a native american religious movement.</p>
<p>I hated this test...I skipped like 7 questions and got at least another 7 wrong.</p>
<p>don't worry too much about skipping 7 and getting 7 wrong. that comes to a total of about -16 raw scores which is still above 700. they know how ridiculous this subject test his, and so they give a pretty generous curve.</p>
<p>akati, i think i put tobacco. I think the first slave came to america in 1619 , but they weren't a real factor in the beginning because of the wide-usage of indentured servents.</p>
<p>I sure hope I did well... Now I don't feel so confident about my scores. =/</p>
<p>English Puritans were the largest group of immigrants to come overseas during the 1600's right?</p>
<p>Hey, I'll be taking US history in Nov, what would you say is THE most important peice/period to know, and what peice/period do you most regret not having studied more for. Also, was there any question on something not covered in your test prep book? I have PR and Kaplan's btw.</p>
<p>pr and kaplan should cover you. try to start up the "memorizing" now, if you want to get a really super good score. there are a few questions that ask you about stupid little facts, and all of them i vaguely remembered reading about so yeah.</p>
<p>there was a lot in there about the revolution and the civil war.</p>
