How exactly to u prepare an essay, without having a question..
I am trying to rearrange some of my essays so i can use them for general questions, by just removing the thesis.. but i am looking for some past papers for the text and there is barely any significance of what is in the "prepared essay" for the questions..

does anyone else prepare essays??

Yeah im doing it right now. I usually write an essay to a question from the syllabus..

A belonging question might be something like 'How has your understanding of Belonging to family, a place or a group been shaped through your study of your prescribed text?'

I dunno something general like that. It comes from the syllabus and as you can see it is incredibly simple. I hate english and i do crap at it, so what im doing is memerising all my essays, one for creative writing, one for belonging, 1st module, 2nd module, 3rd module, and then just write it in the exam lol.. and change my thesis/introduction and conclusion to suit the question

I would recomended memerising an essay that responds to a general question.. then writing it in the exam and change around the intro/conclusion to adapt to the question. Make sure every paragraph is just techniques/quotes.. examples of this technique.. and the effect.

Example.. for Belonging
'The use of personofication (technique) in the line 'The fence closed its eyes' (example) further emphasises the alienation and barriers within society (effect)

Make ur whole essays consist of that shit and u'l get 80percent + EASY

ok that MAKES NO SENSE its the stupidest example but u get the point lol
Hard part is memerising... .lol

AND MAKE SURE YOU USE A QUESTION FROM THE SYLLABUS!!!!!!!!!! questions in the exam come directly from the syllabus. So it's always good to have an intro/conclusion mentioning the syllabus so u can therefore always be answering the question in a way lol

This is for Standard English Module C: Texts and Society

Module C: Texts and Society

This module requires students to explore and analyse texts used in a specific situation. It assists students’ understanding of the ways that texts communicate information, ideas, bodies of knowledge, attitudes and belief systems in ways particular to specific areas of society.

Electives in this module are designed around a specific social context and the texts that are characteristic of and valued within it. Prescribed texts will be drawn from a variety of professional and social contexts. Students are also required to supplement this study with texts of their own choosing related to the module.

Students explore the role of textual features in the shaping of meaning in specific contexts. They develop the communication skills necessary for a wide variety of personal, social, historical, cultural and workplace contexts. Composition focuses on analysing and experimenting with textual forms characteristic of the specific contexts. These compositions may be realised in a variety of forms and media.

How has your understanding of the way texts communicate in their context been changed or developed?

Discuss with reference to your prescribed text and at least 2 of your own related texts.

Very general question, I know. I can't make it more specific.

AOS is almost the same every year so you can usually get a pretty standard essay for that.

For the others, prepare essay BLOCKS with examples, so for every essay you use the same examples and techniques. It really increases how much you write as well.
