| No, the question was like "The Federalist ERA ended with the start of whose presidency?" |

| what about the ? about the election of 1860. i put down that lincoln only carried the north, but i now know that's wrong, but the issue wasn't slavery, it was states rights (another answer choice), and lincoln DID carry the majority of the electoral vote (another answer choice). and i'm pretty sure the other two answer choices were bad as well.
any thoughts? | |

| I remember putting that too because none of the other answers made ANY sense. It was the BEST answer....and anyways...I think it was just trying to get at the whole issue with Lincoln not even being on some southern ballots. | |

| yeah i put he only carried the north--cause the question could also refer to the fact that he attained all the northern states, while took only a few western states. We can't say he also "carried" the west. | |

| I am just curious, partly because im nervous about how I did...did anyone else think that there were multiple questions where the answers were A)worded in really weird ways, and B)none of the choices made all that much sense?>?? | |

| well. i think the questions were so specific so that it was either easy for you because you knew it or hard because you didn't know it. The questions were so specific! I was really surprised, but then again, my teacher didn't cover the last 50 years of history with us and we have the AP this friday.  | |
