My English teacher told me if it is forced persuasive all of her marker friends will quit on the spot so yeah. There ain't no way they're sifting through 50 "firstly secondly thirdly" per hour.

ohh that takes me right back to year 4

Lol that reminds me of the persuasives I used to write in like yr5 about why uniforms should be banned.

I thought I was so smart using firstly, consequently, finally to start my paragraphs when my friends were using "firstly, secondly, thirdly"

I guess if you're spending more time on explaining and analysing in depth, it would make up for it. like your paragraphs would take up like 2 1/2 exam pages each so they know your intention was to have two and not that you ran out of time.

If your response sounds complete, then they won't mark down on that.

any thoughts on mod b eliot and what the extract might be? what should be plan of attack if the extract is a poem i haven't prepared for???? can i just integrate them thematically linking with existing paragraphs? I've heard that it can't specify a poem without an extract because the syllabus has changed since

guys how are we meant to approach mod A question if its an extract

Pray that the themes line up and replace one or 2 quotes from each text
if it doesn’t line up then I’ve got no clue we’re cooked

My slightly botched approach is to pick a related quote for each para to use as supporting evidence for my already established argument. Pray tell the question isn't specifically referencing the nature of the extract else imma be not very happy (same for mod b).

you gotta just try and integrate it thematically. mod a extract is just purely chance tbh if it goes into ur thing or not and if they want to make it very specific. Mod B extract is probs easier to integrate but u kinda have to have the poem as a para cause i don't imagine markers are gonna be very lenient. tho if there two mod a and mod b extracts surely mod c would be like easy as. surely.

ugh thats what my logic is bc they CANNOT make all 3 mods difficult
