Re-phrase the question, and possible answers- does it make more sense now?
Rule out obviously wrong answers. Does your proposed answer reflect a BIG IDEA? Buzz word? Are there other exam questions that might give you a clue? If you just do not know, leave it blank and come back… You
must answer at least 50 questions. If you can reduce your options to TWO, statistically it is a
good idea to guess. Usually your first inclination is the best.
Thesis answers the whole question directly. Support your thesis – Rule of Three!
› Comp- Direct Comparison structure› DBQ- group docs to prove your points, 2+POV, Missing Voice› CCOT- World Historical Context; Beginning, end, what
changed & what stayed the same? WHY, WHY, WHY?? Analyze everything you say,
especially in the thesis if possible: “because, since, therefore, so…”
Hit it and get out – Be CONCISE!
Always Consider… Political – government, leaders, laws Economics – type of economy, major products, trade partners Religion – belief system or philosophy Social – Hierarchy & women’s role Intellectual – writing, literature, philosophy Art, Architecture Relationships with others – long distance trade?
Conquest? Technology – new ones/ where did they get?
