What did you tihnk of AP Euro?

<p>To Flipsta_G:</p>

<p>it does not matter what type of group you do, as long as it makes sense to the reader and it has at least 2 members. You could have had a British, a Czech, a nationalistic, a poets (altought this year it wasn't the case), etc. I had a British, a German, a Czech, a nationalistic/pride, and a women one. You should have at at lease 3 groups, but since you may lose one along the way (readers do not think it is appropriate/one of the group members should not be there) do 4. If everything goes right you have 4 groups, and if you had all the other 5 core pts, you get an extra pt for it.</p>

<p>I hate you, Burr, for making me look bad on the essays.</p>

<p>Man you should see me take the AP Calc exam.... I'd walk out after five minutes.</p>

<p>could u have written about baroque art for catholic reformation?</p>

<p>Yes....Caravaggio for example was a Counter-Reformation Baroque artist.</p>

<p>What exactly are the five groupings required for the DBQ???</p>

<p>i didn't realize you needed 5 groupings - I only did 3.</p>

<p>Apparently 3 is required, any more is extra credit. You can group any way that makes sense. I grouped them (bear in mind this is my first Euro DBQ)...women, british, workers/soviets, people circa WWI, and gymnasts. Pretty random but I couldn't think of other ways to group them.</p>

<p>Question:
For one of my essays, I added more sentences to one of the paragraphs at the end. In other words, I put an asterisk after one of the sentences at the beginning of my essay, and then at the end of my essay, I wrote "*" and then the sentence I wanted to add. I even wrote "Note: See Asterisks" or something like that at the top of the first page of the essay. Do you think the readers will be ticked that it will require them to flip pages a few times?</p>

<p>^ I think it's fine.</p>

<p>Can anyone tell me what they wrote for 5? I kind of rambled and I'm worried that I was wrong.... eeek.</p>

<p>Heh, at my school, a lot of "daring" IB kids took AP Euro...unfortunately, our teacher started at Napoleon. No, not even Napoleon, Waterloo basically...yeah, the Multiple Choice was fun. And about everyone I know bs'd the...first FRQ thing-y</p>

<p>Oh, but question six was like a gift from God, I got at least 25 names and dates in there...^^;;; I heart Russia! I don't know what's more pathetic, my complete lack of "dates" in the first FRQ, or the fact I divided the total pages of the packet (15?) and then was like "five pages each, okay" and made it a personal goal to make number six five pages...</p>

<p>DBQ was bizarre...but, then again, I haven't done an AP DBQ since sometime last semester...but sports? the talk about gymnastics made me giggle...I talked about morals, nationalism and warfare..</p>

<p>my friend burst into tears after the exam; when we finally got out of her what was wrong, she cried that she did the liberalization one...i don't know whether she got majorly confused or what, but she talked about russia being communist or something...poor girl. </p>

<p>personally, <3 to the Germany FRQ....</p>

<p>yea i second that serapheyes...i thought the causes of the fall of nazi germany was a complete joke and loveddd it</p>

<p>i think i did pretty well though, def. a 4 adn good chance of a 5...my teacher is an insane workaholic though, and we knew the material...last year his class average (out of 40 students, in two classes) was a 4.3...we'll see what happens though</p>

<p>my friend thought it was really easy.......but he's also brilliant so take that as you will</p>

<p>my answers:</p>

<h1>1 -- sports viewed as peaceful nationalism and as healthy.. also were viewed immoral in some locations (sweden i think)</h1>

<h1>2 - Columbian Exchange:</h1>

<p>a) Established tobacco industry in england
b) increased cotton trade -- caused industrialization
c) introduced new crops -- green revolution -- increased population -- caused industrialization
d) established new markets..</p>

<h1>3 - Russian essay:</h1>

<p>a) Russian did not have:
-Urbanization (no source ot universities)
-Industrialization (Karl Marx linked it to liberalization)
b) Russian did have:
-Very conservative rulers (Nicholas I for example), and England had less conservative ruler (Queen Victoria)
-Orthodox Church (very conservative institution)</p>

<p>is this good enough for a 5/9?</p>
