I don't recommend that. If you never get to the 5 marker because you're running out of time - you should be asking yourself if you're working on the low mark questions for too long.
It's symptomatic of my speed as a writer ... I'm just wondering if it'll confuse the marker?

I really like those papers because they all perfectly fit the essays I've prepared! However, the comprehension was the biggest piece of bullshit I've ever seen.
I agree, the discoveries in the texts were very stretched out and nitpicked.

What texts are you doing for each module? I'm wondering if we did the same questions.
A: W;t & Donne
B: Hamlet
C: BNW

I think its easier to get the easy 2 marks. Skip a maximum of two Q's if you do run out of time though, since most of the time they ask for a comparison between two texts.

Yeah righto, thanks for the advice. I'll see how my pacing goes (I usually get half way through the last question)!

All the best to everyone tomorrow xx

I memerised a 6 page essay but I'm screwed if the question doesn't includes the key words 'conflict, responses, or confrontation' rip

It really depends how far off your concept is though. I answered a textual integrity question using moral ambiguity & corruption and got like 8 or 9 /15.
