The full mark response. (1 Viewer)

[Cloesd]

How important are these factors in the full mark response:

-The presence of accurate dates

-The presnce of quotes from historians

-An argument, or a new idea about the question being asked.




They are all important, but How important in relation to each other are they?

They must surely exist somewhere!

But hypothetically... What would define with elusive beast?

-The presence of accurate dates

Not so much. Year + month is generally enough. Although BOS don't really care so much if you can't remember the date; they're focussed more on knowledge application. Importance rating: 2/10

-The presnce of quotes from historians

Reasonably. Basically they show that you've considered alternating perspectives (syllabus requirement). Plus be sure to integrate them: don't just say, "Johnny Kittenhuffer says Proposition X", say "Johnny Kittenhuffer's analysis of the role of proposition X in....blah blah......demonstrates the influence of Proposition Y". Basically use quotes to further your argument if you're going to use them - which you should. 2-3 in an entire essay usually does the trick. Importance rating: 5/10, higher if used well

-An argument, or a new idea about the question being asked.

Ultra important. Make judgements regarding the question in each and every paragraph. Importance rating: 11/10

Hope this helps
