What happens if.... in Paper 1 'question 2' (creative writing section) you copy out the story from one of the texts of 'Question1'- one out of the three texts they give is bound to be a short story....now if the question fits, and you copy it out....will you get marked down? Or must you get marked on what write?

AND if you DO get marked down, isn't each section meant to be marked sepretly?

Ever so evil

LOL you will get 0. and probably a non serious attempt. the writers aren't stupid, they know what the texts for part (i can't remembr if it's part, question or A or whatever) 1 are, they know the questions for part 3. they are teachers too you know, they look at the hsc paper.

and to put it most simply as without wings said, plagirism covers it.

Funny...u seemed to be arguing FOR, the copied out text to be marked separately and independently, rather then against :)

What about if you put very tiny quotations marks that are hard to see. In that way, you are quoting the whole text, and therefore aren't plagiarising. If they say there were no quotations, just bring a magnifying glass

Sorry, but that is really silly, it's like cheating someone's ideas. You should try to present original work. Why steal someone else's ideas, it's your attempt they are marking you on, not on someone else's work.

My creative stories are generally just a montage of 'Futurama' episodes wacked together in an incoherent, gramatically incorrect, plot hole filled mess.

Just remember a movie/tv episode and use that, don't be dodgy with that section 1 crap.
