[Como90]

[dizzyinginsignificance]

I read that section like 3 times to make sure I wasn’t being delusional. Thank God it’s over.

done with english until the extension exam at least !!

[x___y]

yeah the mod A and B questions were quite straightforward I thought… and the human experiences we experienced in mod C seemed to just want you talk about storytelling in the imaginative/discursive

I do tempest and hagseed too - I just focalised the metatheatrical discussion and the idea of “servile” characters they gave- no specific analysis on Ariel prepared.

Was not expecting an extract for Mod A again since they did it last year. Mod B was eh, C took a while to process

 

[Featurefilm24]

officially got through this year never once writing a discursive !! honestly biggest relief to not see it in the exam

 

[d1zzyohs]

I love short answer in mod c hahahaha
i did tempest hagseed and talked about the meta-analysis which occureenin atwoods text in respect to the social context and other stuff. looked challenging at first but was quite straight forward.

basically same approach i took - made sure to quote it way too many times haha

 

[Featurefilm24]

but yea the paper as a whole was pretty good. I Stuffed Mod A up a bit as I def didn't reference the extract enough but that was more a me thing, Mod B was easy and the 5 marker in Mod C was honestly a relief (bit concerned I didn't write enough though, I just treated it like a common mod question so wrote a page with a thesis and 4 quotes/techniques??) and the 15 marker was super easy to adapt to!!

 

[ExtremelyBoredUser]

Bruh idk abt you guys but Mod A mod B was pre easy but Mod C was a bit ehh.

Anyways this is for english advanced

Fuck it feels great to exist now without needing to know like 6 essays

 

[user1818]

Thought they swapped the order of the reflection and extended for a solid minute till i read the (a) question

Free 5 marks tho I'll take it, wish i had more time for (b)

 

[sappho22]

thought it was a really decent exam. feeling a bit better now cause the first one i found slightly iffy. i didn't like 'duty' for great expectations but managed to do a pretty decent essay id say. liked it. NEXT UP MODERN!

 

[rrrooster]

mod a: so grateful for the question (on Plath and Hughes) as it was practically identical to the themes of my skeleton essay + I just needed to integrate the extract they gave

mod b: relatively straightforward with a little adjusting to the question

mod c: tbh I was most nervous for this mod since as soon as I saw the “Question 3” for mod C on the front cover I thought they would make us write a 20 mark discursive but I was pleasantly surprised that they made reference to common mod and gave the option between a creative and discursive.

Overall a solid 9.5/10 paper

My thoughts;

Mod A - A bit of a unconventional extract but I liked it because it forced you to actually consider the textual conversation/interpretations (at least for KR3/LFR)
Mod B - Pretty standard and adaptable. Although the idea of entrapment within Eliot's poetry forced me to think deeply for a while.
Mod C(ommon) - You know what, I actually liked this one. I'm not complaining about a free 5 marks and a pretty easy stimulus - especially when I had fears they were going to do something cruel for this section this year.

 

[cyniczny]

mod b and c were godsends for me, mod a could have gone a lot better (had to condense my essay and went a little overtime f) and even though one of my prepared arguments fit the extract very well, i had some trouble actually writing an improvised response based upon it.

out of interest, around how many pages did you guys use per module? got to the last page of the booklet for mod a but b and c were about a page shorter than that

 

[notme123]

does anyone know what the keats extracts were (mod A)
