You think they will ask for 2 related texts for belonging essay or module C? (2 Viewers)

[simonwang12]

In my school they asked for 2 related texts for AOS and mod C, what's the likelihood of this?

 

[madradoddy]

my school says it wont happen, for sure- but i prepared it anyway
i think they just want you to have two so that you can pick which best fits the question

Re: Possibility they will ask for 2 related texts for belonging essay or module C?

They usually ask for "atleast ONE related text"- by which they mean "TWO" lol
I am preparing for two though for both Mod C and Belonging

 

[asianese]

at least one means at least one, not 2.

 

[simonwang12]

No, I know what my trial says. It said "and TWO other related texts..."

 

[deswa1]

at least one means at least one, not 2.

This haha

 

[simonwang12]

What I'm asking is, instead of stating "at least ONE", is it possible they may say "and TWO other related texts"?

Yes they can. I don't think they will but they can if they want

 

[simonwang12]

Alright, thanks deswa1.

 

[Maddi295]

Man I hope they don't ask for two...

 

[simonwang12]

Same, I hope they don't specify texts again as well(this is mod b speeches I'm referring to).

so much this lol.

I think they've kinda realised that it is difficult to produce a sound, sophisticated & in-depth response on three texts, whilst also addressing the question, within 40mins.

 

[SanjoyM]

However, BOS can be as sadistic as they please.

 

[Bozza555]

can they ask for two related texts in module A? for standard english

 

[ArguablyMitch]

at least one means at least one, not 2.

This. It amazes me how many people still think "at least ONE" somehow means you must use two or suffer with lower marks. Some people....

I've already explained myself in the thread. My trials said "with TWO related texts" so I was wondering if they could do the same thing in the HSC.

"at least ONE" --> Does this always happen? As in, will they only ever ask for 1 at the minimum? And possibility they may as "at least TWO"?

Yes they can ask "with two related texts" but generally they just ask "at least one"
No, they don't always say "at least one". In the past few years (in belonging anyways[2009 - 2010]) they have asked for only one related texts.
My teacher just told my class to prepare for two, just in case.
I'm not sure they'd say "at least two", that would confuse a lot of students who would assume that "at least two" meant three related texts.
hope i helped, and good luck
