I accidentally took a senior-level history course as a first-semester freshman (I started in the spring term) because the base-level history classes were filled and my advisor was not there. So, I signed up for an American Revolution class- something I've always had an interest in. However, due to the level of this class, the course work is very difficult and the expectations are much higher. There are only 4 total grades for the semester and I'm stressed about our final paper and need help with ideas. BASICALLY: I have to write about "Why the new American government under the Constitution looked the way it did". I'm not sure where to start- any opinions/ideas?
