<p>^^ there are two indentured servents in that list… and i know this was an easy question but what was the exact wording on abigal adams “that she wanted to take adavantage of republican ideals of revoltuion to gain rights???”" and another answer is “NE abolitionist least likely to support manifest destiny”</p>

<p>and what was the mercantilism one?</p>

<p>yeah, for the mercantilism one, what were the choices?</p>

<p>Btw, inflation vs. increase in investments in capital market is over.</p>

<p>Inflation wins–at least it ought to, unless inflating is referring to how the worth of products went down since there was so much of it =P</p>

<p>There are multiple charts that show in 1932 investments in the capital market increased. Plus Hoover passed an act investing $2 billion in banks.</p>

<p>RedCatharsis i believe it was a question about Charles De Gaulle & why he rejected something about the common market in Europe. one of the answer choices was “he was suspicious of US control… or something along those lines.”</p>

<p>mehhhh i stopped caring about this
apush time…</p>

<p>^I can’t…</p>

<p>I have a 600 words study guide due on wed. Im too lazy and sick of studying for history. But hopefully I wake up from this haze tomm and get back to work.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Definitely not man. ***. Charles De Gaulle?</p>

<p>I’m not angry at you, but if I missed that, I seriously was not paying attention. Heh.</p>

<p>does anyone know what the usual curve is on the us history sat II? and if you end up with like a raw score of 680, can u actually end up with like a 710 with the curve?</p>

<p>monoclide, you’re right. I just went back and checked. Sorry about that!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Possibly. But most likely not? I think at best inflation is like +20 points, but that’s because, well, it’s a factional dispersion–I remember there’s only one fraction say, 78/90, that’s 760 but then below that 3 points, 74-77/90 are all 750?</p>

<p>So I can’t really tell you yes or not. It’s possible?</p>

<p>So I missed 46 pages of this thread, but did yall really compile all of the questions and answers already? How in the world?!</p>

<p>I feel pretty good after looking at the list of questions & answers, I’d say I got at least a 700</p>

<p>i think i have somewhere between 4 and 8 wrong…
have only confirmed 3 wrong so far
is 800 cutoff generally 7?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I have a good memory.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Even 8 wrong could be an 800. My friend said the more official break off should be 79/90 raw–with a good curve, that can deviate as far as 77/90 :o</p>

<p>But I’m not certain. Sparknotes and whatnot says 82/90, but I wouldn’t trust that.</p>

<p>We’re all human. There’s so few people who don’t overanalyze, mess-up, or something tragic on SAT day.</p>

<p>No, you have an insane memory. Good work though.</p>

<p>Funny thing is I took the 2006 AP USH Test today as a practice test (forced by teacher at 8am on a Sunday ugh) and there was 3 quotes that were on the SAT II, except they asked easier questions about it</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Lol, thanks. The answers/options to them were provided by others though–I couldn’t remember everything.</p>

<p>About the APUS thing, I simply feel that the AP exam will ask MORE questions. It’s not necessarily harder. I actually think the SAT’s questions are harder…</p>

<p>Some of them are so specific. :[</p>

<p>There was DEFINITELY not a question on Charles de Gaulle.</p>

<p>I have some questions on answers on the list :confused:
60. Graph of Imports v. Exports–what were some other choices?
64. What was the questions asked for mercantilism?
69. What’s the definite answer for the cattle question? Homesteaders?
74. What was the question asked for Malcolm x?
75. Immigrant Voting in Chicago
76. Africans were not growing cotton–what were some other choices?
80. What was the question asekd for Maryland Religious Tolerance Law stuff?</p>

<h2>81. Gap between rich and poor increases? What was the question</h2>

<p>It’d be a lot of help if I could make sureI got those right :confused:
I’m already on 77/90 :frowning: There goes my 800… What’s the cut line for 780 btw?</p>
