Let's say they ask for one related text. Is it fine to do:
Intro,Core text, Related text, Core text, Conclusion as opposed to
Intro,Core text Idea 1, Related text Idea 1, Core text Idea 2, Related text Idea 2, Conclusion

Intro
B1 - First Skrzynecki poem
B2 - Related text and have a link to first Skrzynecki poem.
B3 - Second Skrzynecki poem and have a link to related text.
Conclusion

But each paragraph was so damn huge~~

Worked out for me so... yeah :haha:

Yeah, I only resorted to 3 body paragraphs because of time.

My prepared essay for 1 related text was:

B1 - First Skrzynecki poem
B2 - Related text and a link to first poem
B3 - Second Skrzynecki poem
B4 - Related text and a link to second poem

Both ways are fine in the end.

My prepared essay was around 1200~

So the essay I actually wrote for HSC AoS... probably 900-1000ish... maybe 1100 at best~~ (then again, whilst I took out a paragraph... I answered the question more so yeah...)

I remember spending like 50 minutes on it though...

Which text?

For Module C, I did the Justice Game and my format for 1 related text was:

B1 - Prescribed text (case 1)
B2 - Prescribed text (case 2)
B3 - Related text and links to both case 1 and case 2

Word count - you should be aiming for 900-1000 words at least if possible.

Yeah, Justice Game is also for CP.

Well, 4 body paragraphs - I'd do:
Poem 1
Related 1 and link to Poem 1
Poem 2
Related 1/2 and link to Poem 2

3 body paragraphs would be either:

Poem 1
Poem 2
Related text and links to poem 1 and poem 2

OR

Poem 1
Related and link to poem 1
Poem 2 and link to related text.

Would not recommend. Some where in the rubic, it says something about how its supposed to be an analysis of your related in conjunction with the prescribed. The structure you mention lacks depth for an analysis. And what is your plan for the 3rd body?

For me, my structure was:

One related:
Intro
Body 1: idea 1 (prescribed)
Body 2: idea 1 (related)
Body 3: idea 2 (prescribed)
Body 4: idea 2 (related)
Body 5: idea 3 (prescribed)
Body 6: idea 3 (related)
Conclusion

For two related,
Same except I would add discussion of my second text with my first related in the same paragraph.
