Also, you can get the scope from any element in the DOM by executing the following from the console

angular.element(DOMNODE).scope()

Where DOMNODE, is of course, a reference to a DOM node.

For example, in Chrome in the elements tab you can select the node where the ng-app directive is, and get the root scope with

angular.element($0).scope()
