the question itself was hard....like because this is what i thought it said to explore:

connections to place influence perceptions of belonging belonging

I logic'd it to be a one way relationship, and you couldn't explore backwards, and because it said place...i didn't include society, because place=nature and stuff like that....so idk,, if you could include society, i wish i could redo this essay haha

I'D LIKE TO PUT A DICK-IN-bos, srsly soo hard to mould it around dickison, IS IT BAD I ONLY DID 2 POEMS AND A RELATED??? but managed 5 pages? i did This is my letter to the world, and I was hungry all the years................FORGOT TO PUT THAT STUPID AS BERRY OF A MOUNTAIN BUSH QUOTE, SO PISSED AFTER THAT EXAM

Yes. You'd lose 2/5 or so marks, because you didn't conclude, and didn't stay in the essay text type (no conclusion). You don't have a shot at a b6 for that response. Should have stopped writing and finished it.

Logically yes, but the marker 'could' see merit in your essay and not mark you down as harshly.

ye should've written a conclusion

it's okay though, it kind of depends. how many related texts did you write on? if only one and it's not substantial enough, you'd lose even more marks.

also depends on initial sophistication of course :p

Ah shit, i only did one but it did fit quite well with place as my 2nd had nothing to do with place.

How many marks are we talking here 2 - 3 maybe?
