Re: Estimate your raw mark

Critical: 23+
Creative: 20+

Raw: 43+ (what would this become after moderation/scaling etc...?)

I thought that the crime creative question was sooo biased towards the 'hard-boiled' school, rather than the 'cosy' school - grrr!

How much did people write? I managed to churn out 4 8-page booklets + 2 pages. I think Modern and Economics on Tues helped with y writing speed...

Re: Estimate your raw mark

hmm maybe 19 for creative (21 raw for trial but I didn't do as well this time)
Analytical about 20, possibly less because I forgot an important point about The Big Sleep but I improved in other areas.
I would die of happiness for a mark of 40+ haha

Re: Estimate your raw mark

I think I'll get 18-19/25 for the essay and 18/25 for the creative writing. I felt I went pretty good and probably wrote my best piece of creative writing ever in EX1. So my raw mark overall should be 36 or 37/50.

Re: Estimate your raw mark

46+ hopefully.

The essay question was great, but the creative stimulus was a bit of a bland bricolage.

Re: Estimate your raw mark

23 for each would be great. just would like to beat my trial on 43 though.

Re: Estimate your raw mark

estimating 21-22 for critical, and 22-23 for creative.

critical's normally my strong suit, but the rftg question was a little bit tricky. why they have to parallel the question for every elective is beyond me

But yeah i agree with Patar, there's so many ways to look at both of them, so i don't know if i'll go better or worse than my estimate.... hopefully better!
