texts for advanced & extension - can they be the same? (1 Viewer)

[s2ophie]

well can they?

My extension related text also fits really well as a related text for telling the truth and i want to do it for both. Is there are BOS policy on this? I don't see why it should be a problem because i would be looking at them from two quite different perspectives but my teacher doesn't think he should. he said somehting about they could bring all your exams together and would you want to have the same texts. Is it possible for them to compare your advanced and extension papers?

Probably not, I think the markers only mark one level (ESL, standard, advanced, ext1), and even if they do mark more than once the chances of them getting BOTH your papers and RECALLING that you wrote about one before is so slim that you really don't need to worry about it.

Oh, and they'll never compare your papers. That's a waste of time.

LOL! the probability of the same marker marking both ur papers and then comparing them is practically 0

go for it, and good on ya for double dipping!

no you should be allowed to use it... the only thing you wouldnt be able to do is use an advanced set text for your related in 3 unit or vice versa because you have already studied it etc... but if they are both used as related that shoudlnt be a problem

yeah we had this dilemma at our school, our english teachers told us that it was fine to double up on texts if necessary. so for example used pride and prejudice (extension 1 text) as a supplementary text in 2u english for change or something.

although if u start to crap on about the individual and society in the change essay it's pretty stupid. well, duh.

what i mean is, double up, but make sure u look at the text from different perspectives etc

yeah i intend to look at the texts from totally different perspectives. truth and individual and society don't overlap very much!
