Share your thoughts of the exam here.

Sooooo easy! Loved it, wrote 8 pages on my analysis, nearly 6 pages on my creative piece, and the short responses were easy and I finished it in 1 page.

I've got a question, if the quote is in 3rd person can you write your creative in 1st person?

Oh dear.

Yes.

 

[Alkanes]

Was ok. Kinda iffy about short answer though. Creative and essay question was good.

 

[Demise]

Oh dear.

I didn't feel the necessity to drag on the responses. I had succinct answers with techniques and textual evidence, so continuous writing would have been pointless (hopefully).

EDIT: I meant 3 pages, 1 section, haha!

 

[FreeLearner]

Hardest shit ever! wierdest story quotes (didn't suit my story) and the comprehension bit was sooo confusing.... LOL I won't be getting as good as I hoped... I guess there's still tomorrow :/

 

[vanessa1234]

I DID NOT like the question! It was awful! Where in the syllabus does it say ANYTHING about moments?!

Creative was okay. Short response...:S

Lets just hope for the best!

 

[Aysce]

Pretty decent paper - Short response was straight forward as well as the essay question. Just a little concerned my story doesn't link to belonging but I wrote a pretty good one imo. Lets hope for the best and good luck everyone for english paper 2!

 

[Alkanes]

Lol moments relates to 'ideas' etc. But you could of linked connections with the moments. Tbh was quite an adaptable question.

 

[Kimyia]

I was fine (I think/hope) for the creative and short answer but I was so stuck for the essay question with moments and Romulus :\
My arm is killing me from writing so much but I'm happy with the length I wrote for all the sections, at least

 

[jason2kool]

FUCKING HELL, ran out of time, didn't do 1e(5 marker) and fucked up my essay
FML

 

[Demise]

I spoke about moments as short time spans, and shifts in belonging. For example, in AYLI, the marriage - short moment, massive shift in belonging.

 

[Kimyia]

Yeah, i took moments as being a definite point in time but that kind of messed me up a little because most of my points weren't a definite point in time but over like the span of the book or in general terms without a specific point in time :\

 

[juicystar07]

I definitely thought it was going to be more difficult, but that didn't mean I found incredibly easy.
I thought that Section 1 was kinda hard, but it was more that I just didn't understand the Basil exercept and the tree one -_-

On the other hand, I found that Section 2 and Section 3 was much more better, and thank God, Section 2's quotes worked so well !

I hope everyone else did great! Knowing how well you guys works, I'm sure you all did splendidly! ^_^

Luckily enough I had 14 quotes memorised and about 8 of them fit specific moments, so I had 4 arguments spanning 8 pages.

oh wow, that is lucky!

 

[jackko]

faaaack, ran out of time was a technique for text 3, sport being a symbol of both belonging & not belonging?

What in the world haha. That's great to hear!
