full mark english essay (1 Viewer)

[qna]

what comprises a 20/20 english essay? asking because i don't have easy access to feedback for my essays, so i'd like to know what factors i need to add in to hit that mark - like a checklist sorta

Pray the marker has had a good day and likes it

From what I've heard
- clear address of question, no vague conceptual shit that says nothing
- specific context, again don't be vague
- at least 4 quotes with technique and analysis per body paragraph. 3 body paragraphs

do all that and I think you will not get lower than 16/20. anything else I have no idea.

I think you need a good introduction (~150 words) to WOW the marker because they may be lazy and will skim your actual essay.

I don't fucking know

for assessment my essay got 15/20 and I used the exact same in trials and got 19/20. i almost decided to rewrite the whole thing for trials becaue 15/20 is pathetic but I procrastinated hard and had to make do with it
