In what ways has the study of your prescribed text given you insight into the complex relationship between human qualities, motivations and actions?

Example thesis: "In exploring how our fundamental human qualities are shaped by our experiences, composers provide profound insight upon how the motivations that drive our behaviour are shaped by both our inherent nature and interpersonal interactions."
How can you know when you didn't do the test?

What the fuck will happen? I didn’t finish my essay (wrote 2 big paras), attempted a third and wrote a rushed conclusion. I wrote a detailed intro. What’s the max mark I can get? 11?

generally the marking criteria is like this:
- specifically answering the question
- making 'insightful response' using well-chosen evidence
- "coherent and sustained response using language appropriate for audience, purpose and context"

if you have structure and made some points with evidence then you would at least pass (provided you made any kind of point) - if you continued your points expressed in the intro well throughout your response, then maybe you could get 13?? maybe? idk depends if you had a good thesis and everything
but don't take this at face value idk how they mark things

Yeah look at the keys definitely AI
yeah I knew it was ai based on the melted keyboard. Also that wire contraption on the left is not something that exists in real life. Atleast NESA took it from someone instead of use ai themselves, cause that would be hypocritical.

This one I’m fucked. I wrote about how the salience of the laptop and the subsequent desktop background reflecting the actual outdoor represented the owner’s sentimental expression of love for their external environment as it serves as an endorsement/appreciation for the external environment…

They're pretty generous when marking so you might get like 14, 15 if your analysis and connections to the question is good. For the conclusion it doesn't have to be an amazing one so it being rushed shouldn't take away marks. But don't quote me on that

What if I mentioned a lot of things (all poems) in the intro but only talked about 3…they can’t mark me down for that right?

I can't be too sure (sorry) but if u wrote about most of your poems, you shouldn't have to lose many marks, they might (if the person marking understands the time restrictions) just base it mainly off of the poems you wrote about, but you'd still be within the range they decide to put u in based on ur intro and the strength of ur argument in the paragraphs

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
my English teacher told me its better to know two poems, and if the prescribed one is unfamiliar that its impressive if youre able to link it to your poems. idk maybe she was trying to calm me down

i personally felt like the essay question could have been easily misinterpreted as it asked for the relationship between human qualities, motivations and actions, not necessarily them individually, which i feel like many people might have done . I very much screwed up the final paragraph of my merchant essay though because i had to scrap one of my quotes but i felt like the language paper was quite good (glad they didnt have 7/8 mark qs)
