Did anyone else answer the wrong question? (1 Viewer)

[gorab]

I think i'm screwed...

I took like 55mins to do Mod B and then around 50 to do C leaving me with 15 mins... i was stressing out because I couldn't find my question and I kept flicking through section I so i just ended up doing the first question for like 10 mins :S

Am I going to get any marks even though I answered a different q but still wrote about my text? (frank/br)

 

[rekura]

Best way is just to forget about the English exam until you get your results Doesn't matter now, can't change what you did.

But as long as the question was similar and you did a few good paragraphs, you should get okay marks for it.

but i heard from the paper1 forums that they only take into account your 2 best sections and put them /60 for here? (because paper1 is /40)
does that mean im safe
& i can't be the ONLY person to answer the wrong question....

Dude that is fake - they take ALL sections into account. No you are not safe, unfortunately.

Just make it up in your other subjects

omg, no they don't. they take every section into consideration! every section is 20 marks, 3 sections x 20 make up the rest of the 60%. So if you didn't finish it then bad luck.

are you sure? he said every section is 20 marks but they would convert it to /30 each... seems plausible
also it's not more of that i didn't finish, but that i answered the wrong question

Paper 1 = Out of 45 --> Gets Converted Into A Mark of 40
Paper 2 = Out of 60 --> Nothing Happens.

Raw Mark = Paper 1 (Out of 40) + Paper 2 (Out of 60) = Raw Mark (Out of 100)

FOR EXAMPLE:
Paper 1 = 36/45 --> 32/40
Paper 2 = 50/60 --> 50/60

Raw Mark = (32 + 50)/(40 + 60) = 82/100

Yes... you'll still get marks. You'll get marks for writing even just 1 paragraph that has an idea, technique and quote in it LOL
And I just looked at the question.. question 1a is exactly the same as fr/br except the name of the text is different. So if you replaced the name with fr/br then you addressed the right question.
Don't stress... if the 2 body paragraphs was 'good' i'm pretty sure you can get over 10. Tbh, I know some people who don't even write conclusions and get 16+

You can just relax now that there's no more english

yes i'm 100% sure. the guy is probably just trying to ruin you. i mean if they converted it to 30 what's the point of giving us a third question? why not just test on two modules instead of 3 and besides on the front page it tells you specifically that you have to attempt one question from each section. I can't put into words how frustrated I get when people say all these stuff whether they're trolling or not because it's stupid.

i thuoght it would have been that they tst you on 3 just to test your knowledge on it...
oh so he was trolling me? D:
