<p>ps the renaissance humanism did not have study of classics as an answer choice XD</p>
<p>only answers that made sense were art form and the care for poor.</p>
<p>Study of classics was definitely a choice. Maybe there were different tests? That possibility is sounding more plausible now.</p>
<p>I said that positions were chosen by lot for the Athenian question.</p>
<p>Study of classics was definitely a choice, I picked it.</p>
<p>Yeah I picked the study of classics choice too.</p>
<p>For the athenian question, I put must be the child of an athenian citizen or something because I remember doing a question exactly like that on a practice test and getting it right</p>
<p>I thought the child of the athenian citizen thing was really weirdly worded because I took it to mean that only the children could participate in politics which made no sense to me. But, I was tired at that point so I have no idea what I’m talking about.</p>
<p>Harrovian for the other athenian question, they elected the board of 10 generals.</p>
<p>Approximately one hundred officials out of a thousand were elected rather than chosen by lot. There were two main categories in this group: those required to handle large sums of money, and the 10 generals, the strategoi. One reason that financial officials were elected was that any money embezzled could be recovered from their estates; election in general strongly favoured the rich, but in this case wealth was virtually a prerequisite.
Generals were elected not only because their role required expert knowledge but also because they needed to be people with experience and contacts in the wider Greek world where wars were fought. In the 5th century BC, principally as seen through the figure of Pericles, the generals could be among the most powerful people in the polis. Yet in the case of Pericles, it is wrong to see his power as coming from his long series of annual generalships (each year along with nine others). His office holding was rather an expression and a result of the influence he wielded. That influence was based on his relation with the assembly, a relation that in the first instance lay simply in the right of any citizen to stand and speak before the people. Under the 4th century version of democracy the roles of general and of key political speaker in the assembly tended to be filled by different persons. In part this was a consequence of the increasingly specialised forms of warfare practiced in the later period.
Elected officials too were subject to review before holding office and scrutiny after office. And they too could be removed from office at any time that the assembly met. In one case from the 5th century BC, the ten treasurers of the Delian league (the Hellenotamiai) were accused at their scrutinies of misappropriation of funds. Put on trial, they were condemned and executed one by one until before the trial of the tenth and last an error of accounting was discovered, allowing him to go free.</p>
<p>Ugh… I thought that, but I managed to convince myself otherwise. Thanks.</p>
<p>sorry for asking again, but can someone please tell me the exact (or approximate question) that came regarding UK and EEC, Africa before 1000 CE and South Sudan - and the answer choices as well? thanks.</p>
<p>Hi wewillwin, I myself don’t remember the Africa before 1000 and South Sudan question, but the EEC question was something about which country/person (I don’t remember anymore) was the one that tried to prevent the UK’s entry into the EEC. It was definitely France/De Gaulle.</p>
<p>btw does anybody remember the choices for the renaissance humanism question?
I can’t remember what I answered back then.</p>
<p>And does anyone know what a 700 is on the BB curve? Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>i don’t remember the choices for the renaissance humanism q but the only one that made sense is the study of classics since renaissance means “rebirth”</p>
<p>and the ones that everyone is mentioning that they don’t recall, i don’t either.</p>
<p>wasnt the moveable type print developed in europe? So wouldnt it be the holy roman empire instead of the song dynasty?</p>
<p>Can someone give me a link to a google doc that has the answers for these questions. I’m sure someone made it by now</p>
<p>@Cardyboy. We don’t have a google doc. We have a list of 92 out of the 95 questions somewhere a few pages back. Just keep flipping until you find it. </p>
<p>@gmann13. No. Moveable Type was developed independently in Europe and in China. Bi Sheng developed it about 400 years before Gutenburg did. However, Gutenburg did develop the first printing press, if I remember correctly.</p>
<p>is the printing press the same as moveable type? i know the song invented the printing press but the question said moveable type, so i was unsure</p>
<p>Movable type was definitely Song. And there seems to be a distinction but I don’t know what.</p>
<p>Moveable type was developed by the Song first,</p>
<p>Then later Gutenberg invented moveable type in Europe</p>
<p>according to Barrons</p>
