I did section 3, then 2, then 1.

S3

I talked about my prescribed text for like 4 pages in mad detail, with quotes, act/scene references, techniques, effects, then 1 measly page on 1 related text, then a conclusion.

It said do TWO tho, so how many marks do u think i lost with not doing a 2nd related text, and only doing 1 page for the 1st related text.

S2

I did a decent section 2

S1

rushed section 1, but im sure i did ok, maybe even more marks than s2.

how gay was it that there was four texts?

i was like zomg!


ps. i had 2 hours and 20 minutes writing time + 10 min reading time =)

special provisions...

I'm guessing around a similar mark as my trial. Maybe 40/45

section 3 probably 10 or at best mabye 13 i guess because lack of one related text and size of the analysis of one related text u did do

section 2 if decent prob anywhere between 9-13 u probably should define decent for me

section who knows guessetmate at about 12-14

so minimum prob 31 max mabye 40

but hell who knows none of us are hsc markers and none of us know what they are exactly looking for

Ok so i have a question about whether i can achieve good marks. Basically i had imaginitve journeys and i thought it was totally unrelated so i disagreed and said that change is the essantial aspect and argued that it was change and not strong human spirit that was essential to an imaginitive journey. I wrote 11 pages and my teacher said that my preprepared essay was a band 6 if i adapted it could i still get a band 6 even though i went on a completely different tangent to the question ?

If you disagreed that's fine, but you need to back it up. If you kept referring back to human spirit throughout the essay good, but if you just went "nope it's x for y reasons and now here's the rest of my prepared essay" GL with that.

I got 41/45 in my trial, so I really hope I can get around 44/45 or so.

HOWEVER, the pessimist in me says <40.

Pretty much said the second one but i kept coming back to that is was unimportant though not really saying why just saying that the other bit was the integral part. I think im screwed.
