I thought that militias had to be cheaper, but how could the colonists have wanted to organize themselves like the European army if they employed guerilla tactics alongside many Native Americans? I knew that common sense should've told me that militias couldn't possibly be more expensive, but for the reason that I stated above, I didn't think that it was a European style army.

Does anyone remember the Marlon Brando question, that was the last one I had trouble with, but I just can't remember the choices; I think I chose something like youthful rebellion.

Yeah, youthful rebellion was right. Jimmy Dean gave it away.

The problem that farmers faced the most up to 1915 was overproduction, no?

Yeah, if I remember correctly, the Dawes Act was the only choice pertaining to Native Americans.

CH -
I think you're right--it was overproduction problems for farmers.
For the Continental Congress/military question I said it was because they wanted to prepare for European warfare....

For the Puritan one, it was because they wanted to create a model society.

I actually think I did okay, considering that I was planning to take World History only to find that it was not offered at my test center (?!)

World history is never offered in October, I'm taking it in December. All the answers you put were right wink. Overproduction was a huge problem, which is why Roosevelt later created the AAA in the first new deal.

Yay, I got the continental army one right, simply because PR said that if in doubt, money is probably the motivator.

That is annoying, that same thing happened to me last June when I tried to take the U.S. History test standby. They ran out of books and I sat the Reasoning Test just for kicks, I focused entirely on CR and got it up to 760.

All things considered, I thought that the test today was very manageable; I got a few wrong, but I think that -4 should still net me an 800.

Feel free to post more questions, I'd be willing to go over any and all topics.

MP -- internal improvements - public works (i.e. transportation or something?)

Poisonous - Yeah, I found out about World History later. I asked a lady at the test center if WH was offered and she said "yes"...I probably should have clarified about October specifically or asked somebody more "official." I haven't had US History since sophomore year and I'm a senior now X_X
