I reckon I did pretty well on this Section, I wrote a sufficient amount (5 pages) and I addressed the question thoroughly. Mainly in the concluding section. Overall, good questions (in my opinion). Others in my school found it very difficult and a lot of people didn't even get to finish the exam. This one guy I spoke to absolutely shocked me with what he told me. He said he got stuck on Section 1 and his timing was a bit off. The cut the story short, he only got 1 page done for Section 3. Gosh -_- be prepared for some amusing changes in scaling fellas!

how many marks could you potentially lose for writing two relateds?

soooo could you potentially get full marks despite the fact that they only read a partial amount of your essay?

definately, but you most likely wasted a shit load of time which would affect your other sections and you also probably didn't write as much as what would be considered 15/15

If you wrote about two related texts instead of one, the markers will mark your best related text and completely ignore the other.

My thesis: While belonging is a matter of choice, barriers to belong, as driven by the attitudes at the time, ultimately shape one's sense of self.

Critique?
