Mediocre SA maybe 17. Messed up my essay but hearing that people liked the question and that it favoured pre-written essays is NOT reassuring guess im gonna have to fluke P2. Also how tf does anyone write more than 6 pages do you simultaneously think while you're writing full pace??? You people are inhuman
it definitely favoured pre prepared essays because that was the most adaptable question they could have given i swear

I was SO prepared for a more complex q about a specific theme or anomalies/paradoxes or something, it literally threw me off. My essay was very adaptable I feel though so I think I did fine

Yeah that’s why I’m scared
I wrote it and answered the question fully

But like it wasn’t very cohesive bc I didn’t have a full essay memorised so that’s sad

Also u don’t need to answer the to what extent directly as long as ur intro shows ur engagement with it lol

i didnt write a conclusion am i f'd
not absolutely, maybe a couple marks tho. for tmrw i'd suggest just wrapping it up and writing a conclusion as opposed to completely finishing your point as i don't think they like it when it's not finished

That’s fine hav marking is more lenient some exemplars have that
But at school we were taught to not just say to a significant and instead show that significance through the intro so it’s basically the sm thing it’s fine
