General thoughts: English Advanced Modules Paper 2 (3 Viewers)

[luhanbby]

hey guys! i'm feeling a bit down because i didn't get to finish my conclusion for Mod C. Wrote about 1300 ish words for Mod A Metropolis... Mod b Hamlet THANK GOD wasn't some specific character or soliloquy lmao like maybe 1200 ish since i was moulding it in...
left with 30 minutes and i didn't finish my conclusion for mod C. i got 19/20 for my trial mark for Mod C, but I'm sure that not finishing the conclusion in hsc will cost me.

from your personal experience, or knowing how hsc markers mark it... what do you think i'll get? would 16 even be possible :/ i know conclusion does impact on the essay overall.. like hey this person actually got to the end and summed up their arguments. ugh so devo

9 pages per essay. Still had 20mins left
Fml, didnt think id write dat fast

omg same here ahaha but i did around 5-6 pages for each essay

i think it went okay, but i feel like i was more prepared/performed better in trials than this one lel

Hey guys, just making sure, for those who did The Prince VS Julius Caesar for Mod A, it wanted us to talk about "morality" right? Just feeling uneasy that I might have read it wrong

I'm quite sure it discussed personal morality.

Is there any way our whole class can appeal to BOSTES?

We told our principal but not sure if anything is going to get done.

You'll loose marks for structure of the response so yeah it'll probs impact you,

My teacher said that and she's a Hsc marker that if you do have a conclusion then you won't get an A- range

A 16 might be possible depending how good your response is

Best of luck

I couldn't finish all the questions there were too many at least like 50 in the paper across 3 modules how do they expect us to finish that?

well I only did the first 3 questions from mod A and made a start on the 4th one

[lpodtouch]

Did anyone do Jane Eyre? What did you think of the question?

 

[Mr_Kap]

Well at least that is better than our BOSTES supervisor that only gave us 1hour and 55 minutes.

so not having a conclusion immediately slots you into the band 5 range? damn thats harsh. i would've thought they would at least consider how much i've written before the conclusion. i got like probs about 900 words out in the 30 minutes i had remaining. hands were cramping so bad though

 

[aanthnnyyy]

You should complain

I'm guessing he forgot to take into account reading time.

That what my Hsc marker English teacher said, so I'm going with her, it's obvious that they did need a conclusion cause structure does matter it is an essay

Should've wrote two line conclusion quickly

yeh..read my earlier post for more details.
