2/3 of your essay body is supposed to be based on the set text--this shows a deep knowledge (this is always what my teacher told us)
Then the remaining 1/3 is divided evenly into your related material--don't try to treat the related material as something totally different, ALWAYS liken in to your set text.
Then you have your intro and conclusion, and that's a nice, four-page essay (at least)

 

[Confuzzled?!]

nah..more than one..but there are specifics.

i think teacher said we needed 3 related texts or sumfing.

4page essay? *Groan*

 

[jo_mon]

I have 1!!!

 

[Confuzzled?!]

yea..exactly..our teacher said we need 3 for trials n HSC i think.
but since we had done this module in less time, we only did 1 related text for Trials.but we need 3 for HSC...dunno..it was definately more than one text.

 

[jo_mon]
