guys when writing narrative and its like a mysterious, crime theme, can we mention things like murder and were investigating that? Or will they deduct points for things like murder, guns, and a dead body? In a practice test I wrote about a girl and her inner emotions and how she sturggled with things like su1c1de (like saying I wish to sleep and never wake up) and her past. The teacher did not mark me down or tell me off for that, and I got 27/30.


I'm applying for year 9 2026.
