    removal of time limits on exams

    nah, nonsense. a) Markers aren't paid to mark 1 essay for 3 hours. b) The Board of Studies encourages responses of 800 words in answering questions. - you should be able to answer a set question sufficiently in 30 minutes. c) i.e the extra 10 minutes is provided so you can give...

    Section 3 - Extended Response

    I believe that people interpreted the actual question differently too. While some people thought that the "understanding" was like acceptance between characters, others did "understanding one's environment" and coming to terms with their identity.

    Do you lose marks for having 2 related texts?

    Yeah, it was definitely a smart tactic on the board's part, because you need to know your text well and not rely on a memorized response. even then, theres no such thing as "Deducting Marks". You'll be marked on the same criteria but they'll look at only the first text. I wrote a booklet and...

    Do you lose marks for having 2 related texts?

    I think this is the question on MANY people's lips atm. Heaps of people read it as "at least one" and some people didn't read that part at all. I saw the "one" and thought fuck no itll be way too short. i don't think they will DETRACT marks, but theres a possibility that they will disregard...
