Yeah same my teacher is a hsc marker and says the exact same thing šŸ‘ With two you can explore both in detail, usually three is excessive so you donā€™t cover enough and I reckon writing on one would just be much harder to do
hmmmm i might do this, but im assuming the two paragraphs must be pretty long then right

Do you do 4 paragraphs (2 on each) or just 2 big ones?

Yes. It depends on the mark allocation however. Typically an 8 marker its around 3 quotes, with around 2 for a 5 marker and 1 for a 3 marker.
wait but if the big marker qn asks u to integrate a stimulus that they give u, would u focus on the stimulus or still add ur own quotes

your essay should already link a lot to sacred texts anyway

I mean yeah just link to those quotes etc more and like for example for sexual ethics be more explicit about linking how the bible (I did Christianity for my essay might be different for you) informs the ethics, for Martin Luther itā€™s easy w sola scriptura etc

itā€™a definitely a bit of a weird qn but like it just means you have to link the yr12 topics to it
