Board of Studies has totally stuffed this up. Even the schools which did have a black out didn't get equal treatment. There is nothing they can do to make this exam fair. However, I think giving away marks is a better idea than taking marks away. BOS should be generous in giving extra marks...
Did we seriously have to talk about the quote in detail???
I just used it to start my essay by discussing the theme death and what it says about the power of individual in each context...

I agree with this thread.
If would be unfair to give extra marks for information that is irrelevant to the question even if it is fantastic.
If English is all about regurgitating everything you know then I will be very disappointed... who can't memorise and essay and transfer it onto booklets?
Re: The Poem Was About A Dog?
Okay, I just freaked out because the poem was supposed to be about a dog and I had missed it lol
I hate these reflective forums that freak you out!!!!!!!!!
Good to know that it WASN'T about a dog...
Dw, I'm fine with my second supplementary text now... Before I was just lazy and wanted to have a simple thesis statement but if I have a more comprehensive one my second supplementary text can be used...
Good luck to both of us!
Yes, I have a movie and a short story although I don't really like my second supplementary text... Oh well...
I doubt it but I hope they ask us to explore one supplementary text!
