part B for continuity and change was a bit of a bugger. The essay questions were alright. the thing is though that one question was so simple that it was limited as to a lengthy answer so i had to go for the otherone twice.

Like in belief systems, we had to talk about 2 or more belief systems, not just one so i was happy with that but it was a bigger effort than the first choice.

i did 5/6 for E+D, 5/6 for Belief Systems and 3 for part B.

i seriously don't know how you could cover everything in 3 pages...
i mean, i'm not saying that the more you write the better you go, but i just don't get how you could have written about everything..

It's possible to get down to 3 pages if your very succint, which is what they want, they don't want waffle,...that's what one of our teachers said, who is a marker. I'd rather have 4-5 good quality pages, than waffle on for 9 or 10...
That's just what i think. I did 4.5 pages for each essay, but i think i got everything i needed in..
anyway, glad it's over! :D woo!

my teacher is a head marker, how good is it havin someone who knows what they look for, it makes it so much easier!

ohh i dunno how i went.. studdddddied soo much for that exam and i think i still managed to stuff it up. i wrote lots.. but i don't think my pop culture response was tooo good - i did the one on changing technology - it felt like i only had one argument for 9 pages... equality and difference was good - but then the short answer section - some bits were ok - but other bits mm i'm not happy with the way i answered them - mainly the first 4 marker - i just ran round in circles :(

I wrote two booklets (8 pages) for each essay (work and leisure/equality and differnece). The questions were really easy and I'd memories my essays so could write heaps of good stuff. I can't believe they didn't mix the questions up more. Trials were heaps harder.

6 for continuity and change, 6.5 for pop culture and 10 for equality and difference... yeah thats 22.5 but my writing is HUGE. Sometimes in SAC (where u use loquacious language) i only managed 4 words a line.
