<p>probably therefore I'm wrong :( qq ... lol if I don't get an 800 or like a 790, </p>

<p>I'm going to rant on my space for HOURS!
--- I'm totally not emo</p>

<p>yeah, my text clearly states that that cartoon deals with carpetbaggers and the KKK's dislike of them...let it go totoboyo</p>

<p>what about my problem?</p>

<p>i put wat julina did</p>

<p>shanianwang.. that chart u linked deals with percent of economy and thus does not take into account inflation as well as the fact that our overall economy expanded from ww2 to vietnam... the chart of the sat ii was in total dollars not in %. thus the answer was def the great society</p>

<p>so does anyone know all of the choices?</p>

<p>was there a question about t he social security act?</p>

<p>what were the answers to that expenditure chart... and b/t vietnam and great society, I would have to say vietnam b/c most of Johnson's time and energy was put into Vietnam, thus more money, etc</p>

<p>Yea I think there was a social security Q, the answer choices were kind of weird too... I think I put like it was the first developed nation to have some kind of pension plan or something to that extent</p>

<p>what are the chances that most of these questions will appear on june sat ii test?</p>

<p>0%. One or two might, but not many. At least I don't think so.</p>

<p>Absolutely no chance that these questions will appear on the June test. It was purely coincidental and lucky that an AP question got recycled, but these questions will not be on the June test. </p>

<p>That being said, however, there is only a limited number of things in US History. They might not ask the exact same question, but maybe something like it. However, that is unlikely too because the tests are so close, and if they were going to recycle or re-make questions they would put the remade questions on a test in a year or more.</p>

<p>So...about that curve</p>

<p>Normal? Less/More Lienent? What do you think?</p>

<p>well is the curve pre-set, or is it based on how people did?</p>

<p>I think all the curves are pre-set based on the level of difficulty of the Qs.</p>

<p>well i cant speak for all but i thought that ap was a joke compared to this...</p>

<p>I think this curve will be about average, I felt that I was well prepared b/c I had recently studied for APs, yet I still got like 7ish wrong</p>

<p>The AP was definitely harder than this test IMO, but I also havn't discussed the AP as much as this test, so I can't really gauge.</p>

<p>u shouldnt worry with -7 i have like -15, which SUCKS</p>

<p>Yea... I think that going with your gut was definitely a good strategy on this test, I did that and did pretty well, plus I feel like compared to the AP, there werent as many "trick" questions/answers.</p>
