does anyone know if they take into consideration what topic you do for each section when they mark it or is everyone compared no matter what topic

You're only compared for p&h, then those marks are used to moderate the marking of the other sections

I feel like I focused too much on the recent discoveries for the 12 marker and that caused me to not finish 😭 but it was so funny right before the exam my teacher comes in like "THERE'S A NEW ARTICLE IN THE POMPEII E JOURNAL EVERYONE TRY AND MENTION IT"

it was like them using digital reconstruction and 3d virtual models to try and see if rich ppl houses had towers (I think the example was House of Thiasus in Regio IX)

wait i'm confused so like they see how everyone who does sparta did on p+h compared to everyone who did a different society and how they did on p+h and then moderate from there?

I am just wondering coz i feel like my 3 other sections were super easy compared to what people are saying here.

yeah basically, idk if its by cohort or individual, but like if we both did really good on p&h, but i did poorly on my society and you did well for a different society, i would get moderated up for my society bc of my marks in p&h
