<p>yeah, i know a lot of people that did 3 and 7 as well, haha... </p>
<p>mc was difficult, i started freaking out when i was on question 20 and half the time was gone, lol - i think i skipped about 5, guessed on a good portion... i was suprised at how general the topics were though, our class tests are waaay harder. </p>
<p>i choose two and six (almost did 7) my last one was just major bs, lol. </p>
<p>how long were your essays? my dbq was like 5 pages (and i have the smallest handwriting -_-), second essay was like 3 pages and third... 2 and only like THREE paragraphs hahaha it was so baddd...</p>
<p>DBQ was 5 pages, question 2 was about 3 pages, and question 5 was 4 pages, I believe? I rocked the DBQ & question 5. I don't know WHY THE HELL I chose question 2. We did the exact same FRE (well, as similar as can be) in class a few months ago and I did TERRIBLE on it. But we didn't discuss the second part of number one and three didn't seem appealing to me. I'm worrriieeeddd.. and I thought question 5 was really vague. I dunno. I had a lot of extra time because I rushed through question 2...</p>
<p>a lot of people did a combo 3 and 7 at my school as well. I know my thematic essays were pretty good, but my DBQ was a joke (as in not so good). I wrote 4 pages but had to rush the last paragraphs because the suggested time was about up. As for multiple choice, I was able to get to question 59 at halfway... however, it took me nearly the rest of the time to get to 80, leaving a total of 7 blank for the entire section.</p>
<p>I finished the MC like 20 minutes early and went back and checked a lot of stuff. I also finished the essays very early. I hope that's a good thing. :/ It's not like I didn't write enough--I got to the last page of paper in the booklet and I write fairly small.</p>
<p>one question though...when writing one of my essays, i referred to the edict of nantes by king henry saying it banned huguenots because i got it confused. it really gave them rights. will i loose a lot of points for that? it was only like 2 or so lines and the rest of my essay was solid, but im worried about that!</p>
<p>i didn't have time to take any exams from the previous years or do any of the review book tests prior to taking the actual test so i didn't know how hard the questions would be. i just spent my time studying really useless extra information.. i thought the mc was okay. i made a stupid mistake though on one of the writers question. the dbq was pretty random. i remember seeing one from a couple years ago that was even more random. i picked 3 & 7 too for the frq. thank god for 3 cuz that was like one of the few topics i really studied. For 7 i just like made up things as i went along.. overall i thought it was an okay test. i need to learn how not to waste my time though</p>
