I’m actually so mad with my Mod A mark. Lost a mark because I “didn’t write enough”… even though I literally squeezed in over 1200 words in the final minutes. Like I was already told by my class teacher to cut down to 1000 words, which I did. But the teacher who marked my paper thought I didn’t write enough because I only filled in 2 writing booklets??

Sorry but I have thin handwriting that fits 7–8 words a line. And bros feedback was: “Analysis is sufficient and detailed. Would’ve liked to see more.” More WHAT? More waffle? More pages?

they even said that I answered the question directly and that I had clear thesis, structure, textual analysis and still got marked down over vague “style” preferences the teacher never even explained. It just feels so subjective. Like unless you write exactly how they want (even if they don’t explain what that is), you’re stuck.

Just so annoyed because I worked so hard, followed my teacher’s advice, and still got penalised over things I can’t control. 😩

teachers are so indecisive when it comes to this, I've seen mine complain about how students 'write too much' but also 'write too little' like ??? what do u want from us bro 💔
generally 1200 should be enough, I don't know how they expect us to write more under that measly ass time limit

No the front is the name, second is writing, third is writing and fourth is writing so 3 writing pages
so its one paper and one page
cause my school gave us a hsc exam booklet for business and it was like 7 pages so idk. Maybe English is different. Edit: nvm they gave us the school's hsc booklet so yeah it will be different
