The Multiple Choice Questions
• These questions will include information that you have learned about this year.
• The questions will be more than fact recall. You will make connections between the many places you have studied.

For example, you remember learning about Confucianism,
right?
In addition to remembering facts about Confucianism, the test questions will push you to
make connections.
