<p>sparknotes explicitly says republicans rose to national prominence
knowthings rose but then died out quickly.</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure it was formation....</p>
<p>Sparknotes was very helpful, but on the first two practice tests I felt horrible and scored 680-690. Yesterday I took one last practice test and felt great- 770. Today I felt horrible, but just like xxmademoiselle, I'm finding on this site that I got most of the questions I was confused about right.</p>
<p>it said which third party was formed or sumthing like that. Republicans and Democarts were lready there so I eliminated that. Federalists died out after War of 1812 and Whig Party, as I said before, formed during Jacksons years.</p>
<p>"i put pragmatism. how does "experience" imply intuition."
I'm like 90% sure this was transcendentalism.
First, in philosophical terms, pragmatism is not JUST empiricism (IE sense data). Usually that data is practically analyzed, and done in terms of science/practicality etc.
Whereas transcendentalism accepts that sensory experience no matter its logical applicaitons, that's what I meant by intuition.
Second, if you've looked over spark notes or anything they are looking to explicity test you on schools of literature/thought in USH: which would primarily be romantic, transcendentalist, etc. Pragmatism is pretty much irrelevant to that so contextually speaking it doesn't make much sense even if you were right philosophically speaking.</p>
<p>Alex, you are right but Republicans were never a "third" party. They formed way before the KS/NE Bill.Don't read too much into it. It was wither the Whigs or Know Nothings as they were the only "third" parties during the time that had any prominence.</p>

<p>I hope this helps guys please give me feedback on what you all got</p>
<p>CHILL you can miss 8 and still get a perfect 800 miss about 14 and get 770 the curve is AWESOME!!!!!!!</p>
<p>i don't remember the question saying third party</p>
<p>oh yeah and the kansas and nebraska act made the: No nothing part I think</p>
<p>i agree with most of those but...
i put joint stock for roanoke
i put pragmatism for logic</p>
<p>also what about the marxist quote, i put slavery and oppressed</p>
<p>AP Freak,
I agree with all but:
- Book most sold: It had to be Uncle Toms Cabin
- Decleration of Ind.: I remember crossing that choice out you stated...not sure
- Iron Curtain: Soviet domination of Eastern Europe according to Chuchill.
- Logic Quote: Pragmatism? I elimintated it to that and Transcendentalism
- Push of the Cliff: Nuclear tension r sumtin. It was made in 1953, after WWII.
- Fench Lost Territory: I didn't know that one for sure. I figured the French nd Indian War was in 1763 but Louisiana purchase was in 1803 so I figured they still had land. Not sure at all!</p>
<p>that's pretty good! As long as I get a 750 I am HAPPY :) :) :) ! I think I got above a 700 on my bio SATII but bombed the math one!</p>
<p>Why is this test curve so good, lol!
Yeah, and the book most sold after the Bible was definetely Uncle Tom's Cabin.</p>
<p>cuz there are somany questions and people miss alot...like us..but we should be in the mid 700 range!</p>
<p>Here is what sparknotes says the curve is:</p>
<p>miss 7 (ajusted for guess penalty) get 800
miss about 14 get 760</p>
<p>miss about 20 get 700</p>
<p>Well I took that test for the first time and supposedly, and comparing it to many of the practice tests I took, it was fairly hard. The actual curve of the test itself is pretty comparable to the Spark Notes Conversion Table. However, I feel this curve might be a little more lenient as may people would agree that this test was hard and had a lot of question about specifics. I am hoping 730+ becuase I skipped like 6 questions and already see i got like 3 wrong for sure.</p>
<p>Good Luck to you all.</p>
<p>Thnks, livinitup. =/ I hope you are right because that's exactly what I'm hoping for...
Except I skipped a lot more than you did. =/ This was my first test everrrrrrrr. :(</p>
<p>hey for the one with the dotted map of slavery and stuff</p>
<p>I put cheap southern land... idk if i screwed up... because i was thinking : the appalachians are kinda in the south as well and there was a lot of slavery around the applachians area</p>
<p>Hey i did research and found that the book Don Quixote is considered the second most published. Was that an answer. I found something related to huck finn being the answer but is uncle toms cabin reallythe asnwer? how?</p>
<p>i got the well distributed is south carolina</p>
