96.40 - .5 less than SAM predicted (2003) but it went with the pattern...and that's 1.4 higher than I was aiming for so I'm fucking happy!!!!!! Well done everyone!

I think if you go with humour at least make it satirical in some way. If I could do it over again, I'd do something satirical and easily relate it to 'telling the truth.'

^^^^^ Did the Minoan religion essay...had done one in the trial that I also got full marks for, and this had all the same stuff in it, so unless my teacher's a really easy marker I'm hoping for a pretty high mark.

I think I got over 20/25 in each section and in a couple I'm pretty confident of close to, if not full marks. Hoping for 90+ ... I think I'll need it.

Serpentia, the alliteration is great, if it comes naturally even better...it really gives some of the poetry a bit of a hypnotic type effect - it draws you in. Glycerine, everyone's already said how well written your work is, and how clear and precise it is...and they're right, I agree, it's...

Oh get off my case. Surely the winking smilie face made the tongue in cheek nature of my post obvious. And if not, the highly pretentious and exaggerated Willy Wonka type waft of the final statement must have given it away. I guess its vapidity was too much of a guise? I mean really, my...

Serpentia, considering your vast poetic knowledge you would realise that prose poetry is in fact a form of poetry in itself...it's a type of free verse poetry ;) Poetry can be anything and everything, including prose.

Why? That's a love song, John Deacon (Queen's bass player) wrote for his wife! If you were doing a Queen song surely it'd be "We Are The Champions" or even "The Seven Seas Of Rhye" "Storm the master marathon I'll fly through By flash and thunder fire I'll survive I'll survive I'll...

Pink Floyd - Another Brick On The Wall (Part 2) "We don't need no education We dont need no thought control No dark sarcasm in the classroom Teachers leave them kids alone Hey! Teacher! Leave us kids alone! All in all it's just another brick in the wall. All in all you're just another...

I think with the critical response in AOS all you have to do is have notes analysing all your texts...make sure they're good...and then work on ways to link them - either in theme or technique. The question's always something generic and it's always something to do with either the beginning...

Just use one of the popular ones. All markers do is look at their marking guidelines. And all you have to do is satisfy those requirements. And that's easiest to do with a case study that has been designed for the course.

I got the same as Supra - 93/105 39/45 for AOS and 54/60 for the Modules test.

I got 95.5 (1st - 2nd 95, 3rd 94, 4th 91) - after that it dropped to low 80's and finished in the high 20's. Either my class is extremely good or it was marked pretty easily. Personally I don't care.

My final entry ended in Yours in trust, Randon student number. And I also hated the journal. I don't think it's looked at anyway. A mate of mine got 46 last year and had a journal of about 10-15 pages. And it wasn't as if it was a 50/50 brought down because of a crap journal.

So far 15/20 for MC and 19/20 for the report. I think I bombed the last essay a bit though.
