I’m in Grade 10 Math and today our test was on Domain and Range.
I studied hard, and was able to answer all questions without doubt. However, I misunderstood vertical as left to right, instead of up and down D: So questions that asked “what is the horizontal intercept, or what is the vertical intercept” would be wrong. I asked my teacher right after the exam if I could get marks for my misunderstanding, since I was used to reading questions as “X INTERCEPT/Y INTERCEPT” Immediately, she asked me to solve a question, and I got it right. She told me she would look onto this matter.
I am going to visit her again tomorrow to see what I can do. My hopes are to either rewrite those questions, or the entire test, which I don’t mind. All I want is to express that I DO understand this chapter and get credits for it D:
So guys, what do you think. Would I likely be able to rewrite the question / a test ? > <

I have an ACT prep book but it doesn’t have a nice list of formulas that are useful
And I have forgotten most since they were learnt last year or the year before

DBQ 3
Between 1775 and 1783 America was fighting Britain to gain it’s independence in what would be known as the Revolutionary War. During this time, specifically 1776, it became apparent that the nation needed a structured government and so the Articles of Confederation were written and became America’s first constitution. However the Articles of Confederation lacked the strength required to maintain stability in the country. In reaction to the weakness of the Articles of Confederation, the United States Constitution was written and signed at the Philadelphia Convention in 1787. Following the first election in 1789 two political factions formed, the Federalists and The Democratic Republicans. The formation of the Federalists and Democratic Republicans can be directly linked to three key issues; in order of importance they are, powers of the government, foreign neglect of US neutrality and the polarization effect.
Between 1789 and 1808 the Federalists and Democratic Republicans were driven apart by domestic issues such as federal versus state powers and loose and strict interpretation. Federalists thought that the government needed a strong government in order to maintain stability throughout the country while Democratic Republicans held the view that the central government should be relatively weak allowing the states to have more powers and liberties. Dem. Reps. thought that if the central government gained too much power that it would become corrupt and in such a case they should follow principles originated by John Locke and rebel against it’s rulings (Document E). The second internal issue that divided the parties was strict versus loose construction. The Federalist party used a loose interpretation of the constitution because they believed it enabled them to create institutions that weren’t specifically thought of or in need at the time of the writing of the constitution as long as the program being established pertained to a power issued by the constitution (Document A). Inversely, the Dem. Reps. feared that with loose construction the government would stop following the constitution and create anything they wanted, tying back into their view of a weak central government. However, there differences weren’t limited to issues solely in America but also overseas.
Since the first government under the constitution, the Unites States has wanted stay neutral with all other countries and their wars. However, European countries refused to acknowledge America as a neutral country and continued to involve the US in their affairs. Disagreements on how to deal with this involvement caused the parties to split even farther. Under Thomas Jefferson’s Democratic Republican administration, the United States levied an Embargo upon Europe. The Dem. Reps. argued that the Embargo was necessary because with out it the British would be free to ignore the United State’s wishes to stay neutral and continue to abuse their trading rights. Once they realize they’re dependent on The United States’ economy they will stop these unjust actions (Document I). On the other hand, the Federalists felt that the Embargo wouldn’t harm the British economy and would only back fire and damage America’s economic strength (Document H). The Federalists also feared that by the Dem. Reps. Passing the Embargo but letting France continue trade, it would nullify our interests of being neutral and start a second war with Great Britain. Both Domestic and Foreign issues caused voters to clarify their standings on the issues and in doing so join one of the two parties, however this was not the only issue that drove the parties apart.
Commonly overlooked, the political polarization effect took the division already created by domestic issues and foreign affairs and intensified the split. The polarization effect occurs when supporters of political parties, in this case the Federalists and Dem. Reps., go to extremes and begin to develop a rivalry with the opposing party. In this case the Federalists thought that the Democratic Republicans were trying to ruin them and undermine their efforts (Document B). This caused the mindset that any act passed by the Dem. Reps. should be automatically opposed because it would hurt their party’s strength. This works the other way as well, because the Democratic Republicans thought that accepting any of the Federalist’s ideas would be political suicide. As mentioned before, when polarization occurs between two parties it can create a heated rivalry between the two factions and can cause paranoia and hatred, in this situation it was taking to an even further extreme when in 1798 a fight to broke out in the House of Representatives (Document D). This mentality has no place in politics and will only lead to extremely divided parties and will put the bettering of the country on the back burner.
i ran out of room for the conclusion. And I know i used all the documents correctly.

If I applied to Northern Illinois University for fall 2011 after getting a 15 on my ACT and was denied admission, can I retake the ACT and have my application looked at again? Or will I have to wait until spring 2012?

I’ve finished CSET 118 and 119 (General Science). I’ve had a lot of trouble finding exam books for CSET 121 so I’ve been using textbooks. Is there anything else I can do to better prepare myself? Any good websites or information?
If you’ve taken the test, anything you remember about the test would be a great help. I feel like I’m in the dark and want to pass this expensive test first time around!
