<p>Maybe it was a practice test then, but I had Incas on my mind for some reason. </p>
<p>Oh, there was a mercantalism question. </p>
<ol>
<li>Mercantalism: Colonies should be a source of raw materials (not sure about the wording, but it was something like that)</li>
</ol>
<p>EDIT: Another one</p>
<ol>
<li>Byzantine Empire: The Eastern part of the Roman Empire after the 5th or 6th century AD</li>
</ol>
<p>Why can’t I edit anymore? </p>
<p>I remember that there was a question where we had to attribute a saying to someone. One of the wrong choices was follow the eightfold path to Nirvana.</p>
<p>A saying about what?</p>
<p>I can’t remember, but I remember them giving us a name and telling us to identify a saying that went with it.</p>
<p>I really feel like we’re missing out on something.</p>
<p>I’m not sure if it was diocletian, constantine, ww1 or something</p>
<p>Oh wait I remember this: Why did poland ally with Britain? Was it to prevent invasion from Russia and Germany?</p>
<p>@Gloogle Diocletian to Odacer was an option for the Byzantine empire question</p>
<p>And The question was why did Poland ally themselves with France (They only allied with britain 3 weeks before Germany invaded) and it was the prevent German and Soviet invasion.</p>
<p>EDIT: And I just remembered another question! What was the point of the Berlin Conference? To draw up rules for the colonisation of Africa</p>
<p>Ok so:</p>
<ol>
<li>Mercantilism: Source of raw materials + market for finished goods</li>
<li>Byzantine Empire (I still don’t get the question…): Diocletian?</li>
<li>Poland alliance: To prevent a Russian/German Invasion</li>
</ol>
<p>@Harrovian Yeah Berlin conference was for africa!</p>
<p>86!</p>
<p>@Gloogle thanks. I was 95% certain it was Africa but not 100%. </p>
<p>And 84. Was specifically, what was the Byzantine empire. And the answer was the Eastern part of the Roman Empire after the 4th or 5th century AD. </p>
<p>Diocletian to Odacer was one of the wrong choices.</p>
<p>I think I’ve clinched an 800 at this point. With 86 questions in I have a raw score of 84-87. Even taking a harsher curve of 78 for an 800, I’ll still need to get half or more of the remaining questions wrong to drop below an 800.</p>
<p>I think I remember something about the ff being on the test too. Please confirm:</p>
<ol>
<li>Spread of Islam to southeast & south Asia</li>
<li>Something about medieval japan</li>
<li>How africa was divided arbitrarily by the colonial powers</li>
<li>Which country gave stuff & education to explorers: portugal</li>
<li>Something about an invention?</li>
<li>Etruscan influence in Italy?</li>
</ol>
<p>I’m just taking these straight out of my thoughts, so don’t be surprised if some weren’t in the test at all.</p>
<p>@harrovian, worst case scenario for me, if the curve was harsh, and I get only 2 from the next 9, I’d still have a 690, given a harsh curve and that I get all the debatable ones wrong, so I guess a 700 likely to happen</p>
<p>Why would they give a HARSHER curve this year? The test this year was supposedly much more difficult than previous years, and it seems like a lot of people struggled. I guess hypothetically, if they decide to implement a harsh curve, but I doubt it. They’ll probably also throw out a question or two.</p>
<p>What does ff stand for?</p>
<ol>
<li>I’m not sure. That sounds vaguely familiar, but I really don’t know</li>
<li>I’m not sure, but probably not on the test</li>
<li>BB Test, I’m fairly sure</li>
<li>Definitely not on the test.</li>
<li>Maybe the movable type press?</li>
<li>BB test 2 question 20</li>
</ol>
<p>I assumed it was a harsh curve so I wouldn’t get my hopes up too much. It makes me much happier/less disappointed with whatever score I receive.</p>
<p>But how do you tell if they will give a more lenient curve? I mean how do we know that the tests this year were harder than the previous ones?</p>
<p>ff means following.</p>
<p>dammit, i’ve really run dry on the questions now</p>
<p>There seems to be a lot more people complaining about it. And I can honestly say that this is the hardest WH test I’ve ever done, so I’d assume that it’s a more lenient curve.</p>
