    Can they ask on friendship

    They make it narrow to stop memorised essays but broad enough that there would be many arguments at the same time. Friendship is too narrow as LifeBoats mentioned, one cannot sustain a 1000 word essay based on that theme nor can they go into too much depth, therefore they'll lack a coherent...

    What is a thesis

    No, your thesis is your argument. You should have (at the opening of each paragraph) a point of argument that meets your thesis. The ideology that a majority of citizens uphold which is that chocolate is good is encapsulated within Cadbury's text "BUY OUR CHOCOLATE NOW" (2008) and Nestle's "WE...

    Tomorrow: It begins...

    English is daunting since it's so broad, you can write anything and the marker can't mark you down if they disagree (given that you've provided evidence and logic as to how you got to that assumption). With such versatility, the board had to be constant with some of the marking schemes, and this...

    Tomorrow: It begins...

    You get 50% of the mark automatically once you prove to the marker you've read the text. Have some quotes and context - don't answer the question and you've got >10/20 or >8/15 automatically. Our advanced teacher who's been marking the HSC says those are the guidelines. So... I'ma get at least...

    Overall English Structure

    It's a new exam committee this year, and over the last 5 years they've been doing all they could to stop prepared essays, I honestly think they're not going to be lenient on us and instead try to challenge us as much as possible. I'm guessing based on that premise that: Paper One...

    Is this a good thesis?

    Pretty good length, you've addressed the question and done everything well to set yourself up to argue it. Good job. Remember to define community belonging as both belonging to the full community, and separately to specific individuals.
