Yeah, Im a bit worrried.
I didnt like that question, and i diasagreed with it. I basically said that although the journey is important and is the means of arriving at a destination i.e. outcome, it is what we learn form the journey i.e the destination that is more important. than the journey itself.
Oh oh, now im freakin out lol

I thought it was good. I did a pre-planned essay on how my 4 texts challenged our thinking and broadened our understanding of the world. That was pretty easy to wrap around for the question we were faced with. All in all, very happy.

 

[disco_dave]

i didnt, but thats original! havent ever thought about that.... if only you said this 4 hours ago bobbie!

 

[Cab31]

did any1 use the quotes from text 2 of question one in ur essay. cause they were pretty useful and illustrated my arguemnt well so i just stole em

damn it....i didnt think of that....god im slow

You should never disagree with the quote because you can contradict yourself easier

 

[townie]

i'm in two minds, it was good and bad, i think they could have said the same thing in a clearer way e.g. The journeys is more important than the destination rather than than the way they put it

 

[grimreaper]

Yeah I just had a preplanned essay that fit fairly well into the question

haha yeh i was guna, but i forgot.
this question was almost exactly the same as the question given to us in our journeys assessment. so yeh, pretty easy i thought, i expected something trickier.

Yeh i also disagreed, saying that the arrival = conclusion or goal. Only when you arrive you truly understand the purpose of the journey.


I no this is stupid but, you can disagree right?

 

[vanbasten]

Quite easy. My final statement was a quote "when the fight begins within himself, a man's truly worth something." We did inner journeys so it worked out cool.

 

[cro_angel]

i thought it was a pretty good question.. i could easily fit my information to suit it and i managed to write 11 pages for it yay

 

[aLeeOh!]

i thought it wasnt bad. heck, the whole exam wasnt bad!.. it was fairly easy...but that's what worries me

Yeah, i guess one could have disagreed i mean it did say discuss.
I mean whats the pint of the journey if we dont learn andthing from it or if it has no purpose? That was the logix i used anyway.
I was just worried coz no noe else seemed to have disagreed with the question.
Yay i found a friend!lol

 

[vanbasten]

11?....nice. I did 8.

 

[vanbasten]

But what if you don't arrive?

Regardless, it said discuss so it was a good idea to disgree. As long as you backed it up well.

 

[glitterfairy]

Overall, nice exam, not too bad to answer.

the "journey is more important than the arrival" question was so easy...

 

[Candypants]

Yes twas a lovely question... but I expected it to be something really generic anyway. I am SO glad they didn't ask us to refer to a specific stimulus or coleridge. But yes, lovely question.

But yeah, very easy. Nothing to distinguish the really bright 99.whatever's from the 95's or 90s.

I agree...it was terrible. I thought the essay q was soooo bland and broad that it didn't really give you anything specific enough to grapple with and hone in on. I had all this really detailed stuff but couldn't use it because I had to do the whole broad overview thing. It didn't give you a chance to shine, because everyone's pretty much going to say the same cliched thing. My essay was so...average. I was so hoping for a 'how does the journey challenge the conventions of the world' or something more substantial.

yep. that's ur pomo studies coming through there.

and i felt pretty ok coming out of there, but then i felt the same after trials and i only got 80.

I thought the question wasn't as good for all journeys. I do imaginative and it wasn't the best quesiton they could've given us! but hey, whats done is done Nice paper BoS
