Quick question, but many words should I be aiming for in my writing for module C for those questions with 10-15 marks

10 marks = half as much, 15 marks = 3/4 as much

4 pages is a lto but idk advanced english probably got way higher standards i know these mfs be writing 4-5 paragraphs in 40 minutes somehow

idk somehow none of my feedback mentioned the quantity of what i wrote (probably bc a majority of the grade didnt even finish their mod c sections) i think i write pretty big too

nam le you can always try a literal father-son relationship
atwood you could do some discursive about writing

bam
tbh both you just write a story about an author and you're fine, just use their literary techniques and say you were also 'inspired by their thematic explorations of writing' or some bs

im doing nam le for my imaginative so that's all very similar to what im doing lol

Yeah i have these idea but idk IM SO DONE WITH ENGLISH

[No surprises]

The English feedback are always mysterious, my school asked external marker to mark it and they literally gave us 6/15 by just commenting not sophisticated enough

idk somehow none of my feedback mentioned the quantity of what i wrote (probably bc a majority of the grade didnt even finish their mod c sections) i think i write pretty big too

 

[No surprises]

@No surprises what's the unsw offer

City planning, Atar requirement low asf, and I got conditional offer so I just need a 70 rn. But that's what I wanted to do so idm

 

[liamkk112]

There actually is a point , also is there much of a difference between standard and advanced other then its easier

not really, standard is easier but it scales worse so it cancels out if you put in the same effort

personally i couldn’t crack above a 16 in advanced but could top my cohort for standard… the texts are way easier and the expectations / competition is usually lower

 

[its_ace21]

but could top my cohort for standard

coz standard = dropkick cohort

THANK GOD MY COHORT ACTUALLY TRIES THO IM RELYING ON HALF OF THEM

yea for my cohort, everyone tried pretty hard especially bc the class i was in was full of advanced droppers (about 26?) it’s just that i found the content much easier and like i said the depth of analysis expected wasn’t as high, don’t get me wrong there are definetly some times where there is a lot of depth expected (mod b, common mod) but it’s nowhere near the insane expectations for advanced students where u have to have the most cracked vocabulary and 1500 word essays
