Does anyone know if the BOS/CSSA can ask or have asked for a specific stimulus text or for 'at least two' from the bos stimulus text booklet for journeys? i only know one of them and worried that we might have to talk about more...thanks.

hey
im pretty sure we only need to no one....
which one u doin?
iv been told only one
hope that was some help

hmmm..... we've always been told to know of two very well because in most cases they can ask you for ONE, at least ONE, or TWO.

Nevertheless, i think emphasis would be on texts of ur own chosing, so at least one stimulus materials and at least two of ur own chosing.

Can we use the same Other Related Text in AOS as well as Module C if it is relevant to both?

 

[priesty]

i dont see why not.... the markers of Module C question won't know what u used for ur AoS question

 

[confused girl]

dont think using it 2ce is a good idea
they can check
and u get caught out
well thats wat iv been told anyway
better to stay on the safe side

If it's relevant to both what are they going to catch you out about?
And if it isn't relevant to both than you'd just get poor marks for one of them.

As for the stimulus booklet, I always thought it would always just be one. I'll be in trouble if it's not.

I doubt they would do it though, because 3 texts is already heaps to fit into a essay you're meant to write in 40 minutes. It's already more than three if your prescribed is poetry or you're planning on using 2 supps.

Meh, screw it. I haven't seen it written anywhere that we can't, and if it's relevant...

Too late now anyway. I'll consider changing it for the HSC though... maybe...

Anyway, if they only ask for one related text tomorrow, then I'm fine and won't need to double up.

my teacher is a senior marker and hes only teaching us one, so im guessing that one is good enough
