guys mod c by deduction should only be 15/5 or 20... last year 12/8 and they've done 10/10 twice soooo i dont think we need a reflection cause if its a 15/5 the 5 would be the stimulus

predicting hsc questions is just gambling bruh they can do whatever

what if they ask 5 mark reflection

 

[UndistinguishedPenguin]

My notes for Mod A are good but I still need to revise specific examples since that's what kept me from a higher mark with the trial paper; feel like the right way to go for Mod A is to spend half a paragraph on analysing the earlier text and the other half on evaluating what the later text reframes from the earlier text. I also need to revise content and examples for Mod B since that's the module I'm least confident with. Not doing a lot of Mod C revision outside of light revision with the short texts since I'm confident with the general storyline I've memorised.

write extra big in your disc/imag

 

[UndistinguishedPenguin]

what if they ask 5 mark reflection

In that case I'll probably stick to one of the studied short texts and compare it to my own writing using 2 examples from each.

I'm not a great predictor by any means but I think with the short answer section the mark allocation will be a 3 marker, three 4 markers and a 5 marker. Can't see them going with a 6 marker unless they also want to give us a 2 marker which isn't something I find likely

could we get asked to refer to TWO prescribed texts for mod c?

 

[aqwerty13402]

what if they ask 5 mark reflection

just a single body paragraph right? 250 (ish) words?

 

[UndistinguishedPenguin]

could we get asked to refer to TWO prescribed texts for mod c?

I think it's possible but only if it's 10 marks for each part, and this is of course assuming they even ask for a reflection.

you reckon they're gonna ask for a 20?

 

[UndistinguishedPenguin]

you reckon they're gonna ask for a 20?

They did for my trial paper so I'd give it about a 50/50 chance of happening.

 

[lildroptop]

you reckon they're gonna ask for a 20?

no

 

[aqwerty13402]

no

whats ur reasoning for no

 

[twilight_star24]

nah i hope they ask for a reflection its soo much easier to get marks than a creative/discursive

does anyone know how to answer a question on mod b given they specify, i do ts eliot and my paragraphs are per poem so how would you implement the excerpt into the essay?

does anyone know how to answer a question on mod b given they specify, i do ts eliot and my paragraphs are per poem so how would you implement the excerpt into the essay?

it would most likely be metaphorically obviously, since the excerpt will be from one poem, and ur doing 3. so i would say try read the question carefully and see what are the broader themes the excerpt is talking about and try just hammer down on them. i mean if it fits well u could include some of the quotes or get lucky if it's already in ur essay, but that is not advisable prob under exam conditions.

 

[igor9]

also do u gotta know all 5 poems u reckon for those doing t.s. eliot, coz i've not even touched on preludes and rhapsody this whole yr and never had to for trials either, because i feel like i can perfectly answer the question without them. surely they don't ask for those two specifically right?

to be safe i'd have something prepared for all 5 poems at least, so quote + analysis for preludes and rhapsody
