k.

But like, I'm pretty sure there is criteria for how understandable it is, so she doesn't really know what she's doing (no offence (actually complete offence, she should do her job right, you guys won't be prepared for externals)).
My mini essay was only ~1.25 pages.

Yeah, probs.

see, this one knows what she's doing.
well.. it all depends on what the question asks
only time will tell...
until then, Good night to you, my friend, and i may require some advice on how to prevent myself from suicide before paper 2 (did notice the hyperbole?) :p

but seriously, i will need help for paper 2

two paragraphs, two to three examples

statement about belonging
technique
evidence and analyse
if second analysis
technique
evidence and analyse
answer question

statement about belonging
technique
evidence and analyse
answer question

make sure you name and explain why and how the technique works and that you don't just put things like "in this quote", "in the passage" rather contextualise it like "the transition of White Fang as fight dog in "quote"", "this extended metaphor of water is present in Dickinson's imagery in the lines "quote""

hope that helps

if you do advanced I'll probably only be minimal help. (standard, yay)

Heyy so how'd you go in the paper today? I think I failed miserably for the essay question - not even sure of the markers will be able to read my writing =_=

Well, lets just say i made a few changes to the question they gave us so i didnt have to change my essay, because, it shows how bothered i am for english.

Section 1 was ok, but questions 1a and 1c were retarded, just like their text.

The creative; i didnt even understand the quote i used, so i'll see how that goes

Other than that, i'll be happy with 80% (i doubt i'll get it though)

AND TOMORROW, IM GONNA FAIL :/

3 pages? I don't think so. I was told a page will do. How big are the booklets you guys use?

Howe come your trials are only worth 20%??
Because my teacher made our other assessments worth 20%, and the last is 15%, which leaves the trial, well, paper 2, to be only 12%

I somewhat feel less stressed now :D

haha I think I've given up, I'm just going to make sure I answer the question with as much detail as I can remember...... gotta focus on the other trials too, which I've barely touched.

Goodluck for tomorrow:)
