<p>ppl should get over the fact that Hitler is just a leader who brought Germany out of depression.
btw, do you think that he actually killed 6 million Jews? I mean, the people counting the deaths couldn’t have counted so many people.</p>
<p>“Still, I see nothing wrong with Hitler in a positive light”</p>
<p>Then “noobcake” is an excellent handle for you. Look, people, Hitler killed millions of people, including six million Jews. It was the NAZIS who counted the people they killed. People who deny the Holocaust are either shockingly ignorant or virulent anti-Semites. But let me rephrase my previous advice–if you approve of Hitler’s actions or convictions, I think you should say so in SAT essays, college essays, school exams, etc. The results will be appropriate.</p>
<p>Hitler could have been looked as “great” had he not created concentration camps.
He was a genius, a military mastermind, and one of the most influential figures in all of history.
If he never created the Holocaust, we would have looked at him, as we do to Napoleon.
If you want to write on Hitler (I suggest you dont) then stay away from the Holocaust. Write on his military stragety and rise to power.</p>
<p>Ok, now please let this topic die.</p>
<p>
I did, and it was fine with my school. Not everything is completely black and white</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Wow, you’re an ignorant fuc.k. So you’re argument that the Holocaust is exaggerated is that you think they couldn’t count that high?? At least use some logic with your bigotry, I mean, “they couldn’t have counted so many people?” I guess the death toll of World War II of 60,000,000 is wrong, too. </p>
<p>Over ONE THIRD of the entire Jewish population was killed, and TO THIS DAY there are still 4 million fewer Jews in the world than there were in 1939. Maybe you’re too comfortable in your sugar coated, bigoted world to conceive of that, but maybe if one third of your family and every other family pertaining to your religion were to die you would begin to understand.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>And do you know why nobody else did that? Because you’re a fuc.king moron! You revere him because he brought Germany together, but you actually have to read past page 1936 in your history book. For if you were to read past that page, you would see that that unity lead to the aforementioned 60,000,000 deaths at the behest of those who he united. You can’t just excise one historical accomplishment and revere it without examining the consequences. </p>
<p>Yes, he united a distraught nation, but what came as a result of that unity? Well, on the one hand, as Mr. aisgzdavinci pointed out, the German people came out of their economic depression. Great! But, unfortunately, we have to turn the page of history, yet again, for what did they do after they were free of their depression? Plunged the world into War, causing the death of 60,000,000 people including at least 6 million INNOCENT people who were SLAUGHTERED. Oh, but Hitler saved the Germans a couple of bucks, let’s all shower him with reverence.</p>
<p>about 70% of the white people at my school are jews btw, haha</p>
<p>Godfatherbob: jw are you jewish?</p>
<p>wow let this topic die. Damn. The thing you guys are arguing about has nothing to do with the SATs. Go argue in your prviate messages.</p>
<p>None of us are Holocaust deniers.</p>
<p>Lemme get my position here straight.</p>
<p>I believe the Holocaust happened. I believe Hitler killed many innocent Jews, gypsies, etc. I’m merely questioning an orthodox view on why 6 million killed, why not 5 or 7 million?
This is a question, not a denial.
End</p>
<p>use someone else like hitler. This way you don’t run the risk of making the reader angry and if you use someone more obscure it looks like you really know your stuff. Everyone knows who hitler is, but does everyone know who leopold is? It really shows that you know history, and i think that is key to doing well on SAT essay. Put great scholarly sources. Link the essay to novels etc.</p>
<p>I am curious as to how to study for the Placement tests…Are there books to study from or online resources and such?</p>
<p>There is a very important psychological component to all evaluations and the essay is no exception. People can try to be objective but they cannot be perfectly objective. You are better off writing about pleasant and non-controversial things in your essay. You have nothing to gain and everything to lose by bringing up Hitler in your essay, even in a negative way. Your goal is to maximize your score. Try to strike a positive, upbeat tone.</p>
<p>OK ENOUGH ALREADY. This topic is done, just please stop posting in it.</p>
