That should be fine.

That exam was much easier than I could ever hope for, all those fear-mongers saying that we may need 2 related can go to hell.

do they count only your 2 best sections for both papers or just AOS?

They always count all three people are just trolling

 

[leesh95]

I don't think a conclusion is necessary for part (e).

Yes but i would have liked to be a bit more thorough with it and give it a nice finishing touch. But I ran out of paper as well as time so I let it go.

 

[SuperMike96]

i talked about choice and attitudes for the namesake... is that right or wrong?

Considering that was the question I'd it's right...
For Namesake I talked about Gogol + Sonia's negative attitude towards India preventing them from belonging, and I talked about Moushumi's choice to move to France allowing her to belong as well as Ashoke and Ashima's choice to move to America allowing them to connect with the nation.

 

[Frostbitten]

They count all of it.

When you think about it logically if that was the case then all students would just pick two sections they were best at and not even attempt the third one.

 

[muffintoast]

FML! I forgot to mention my related text in the introduction! How many marks will I loose?

 

[ohmygawd]

What is the possibility that tomorrow they ask for only ONE related text for Conflicting Perspectives?

What happened if they put two? You would be on here crying you didn't study it...

Yes, so I answered the right question at the end, kinda. Honestly my answer for that question is just a mess.

Is it true that if the AOS paper is easy they make up for it by giving a harder paper 2?

 

[hayabusaboston]

Sec 1: Hard little bitch, was not expecting that level of difficulty. Got everything in the end though, predicting 11 or 12/15 from some bad analysis maybe
sec 2: Kickass story YEA YEA loved my story, but not sure if markers will, Im guessing 12-13/15
Sec 3: Super duper detailed analytical essay, maybe again 12-13/15

or so I hope haha. Meh will see how it goes.
