[ballerinabarbie]

Paper 1 - Area of Study
Section 1 - Comprehension type questions on 3 texts (u are given these texts)
Section 2 - Imaginative response on "change"
Section 3 - Critical response on "change" (essay)

Paper 2 - Modules
Section 1 - Module A (In the Wild/Transformations)
Section 2 - Module B - Critical Study of Texts (King Lear/Cloudstreet)
Section 3 - Module C - Representation and Text (Telling the Truth/Powerplay/History and Memory)

(there are other texts but i dunno them all!

 

[iambored]

yeah, paper 1 is monday, paper2 wednesday
so 'change' on monday

 

[AsyLum]

hmm another question how many texts exactly do we need to know, cos our teacher never really made clear how many we needed from the core and related

 

[anti]

For Paper 1 I'd see the AOS forum. There are literally tens of.... posts about this topic.

For paper 2, you only need related texts for Module C, I think. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on Cloudstreet.

 

[HannieStar]

Well you need critical stuff for the critical study- so thats a bit more to know.

Hey, is there a chance that the test will be like last year's paper?

As in;

-Four texts rather than three
-Last question of Section One being worth five marks rather than six.
-Paper One, Section Three being a text type other than a straight essay, (Last year's being a feature article)
-Each section of the Modules paper being essentially open-ended questions?

Its almost a certinty that Paper I Section III will be an "alternative text form"
As for yoiur other points... if they've done it once, they can do it again.
