i feel like everyone forgets mod c is of equal value to the paper, like the essays arent worth more. id rather get two 18s in mod C and A than getting a 19 in an essay but getting a 15 in mod c, like thats 6 marks thrown away. i feel like its easier to do better in mod c bc they reward ur crafting and u just adapt to the fluffy question - memorise a justification and thats a pretty easy 8-10 marks tbh
Problem with mod c is the variability with questions, which does affect the other modules but to a much lesser extent ie. rubric basically gives you examinable stuff like for common mod yk u can get a q on paradoxes - mod c's whole schtick is to be the least prep-arable, which is why its basically hated lmao

Only thing that scares me is mod b text prescription, since I do eliot. If they prescribe a poem I am not prepared for I'll probably kill myself honestly. I'm making the dumb decision to assume that they wont prescribe hollow men again (since they did that a few years back), so I have a 3/4 chance that they prescrie one of my poems. Hopefully love song since i like my love song paragrah the least
Lowkey that hollow men extract was fire, I had like 4-5 quotes from the paragraph in my essay. And tbh Eliot's not so bad for extracts, like at least all the poems are kinda similar and you just replace one paragraph. Plus they're relatively short, just reread the day before imo

True. I think I'd be best suited to a Magi extract, since its in my essay and its short so there's a chance that the extract i'll alr have.

yeah mod C ranges from being somewhat manageable to the unlubed d*ldo of consequences from not understanding correctly the page-long syllabus document being expertly shoved up one's behind to inflict the most pain possible.

the use of explicit imagery would better be used in your mod C script. also that metaphorical juxtaposition would be pretty nice as well
