    General Thoughts: English Advanced Paper 2

    Heh, the 2011 Hamlet was a nightmare for those who tried it. Even for practice essays. I guess they wanted to see if students had a thorough grasp of the play and how much torture it would be for those who lacked a firm grasp of Hamlet.

    Flunked Paper 1 ! :@

    You should be fine. You'll get above 70 if you can at least do more than half the papers.

    Board of Studies 'own' your responses

    The universe implodes because you were exerting your rights to your own work and hence having divided by zero? Maybe. :P

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    Yes, you are allowed to use the quote. Feel free to. The purpose of the creative writing section is to test how well you can integrate a stimulus into a creative piece. This can be through the direct quoting of the stimulus or through an interpretation of the stimulus where aspects of the...

    Section 3 - Extended Response

    Oh, that would probably be 10 pages for me. My writing morphs from compressed to freaking huge and wide as the exam gets closer to ending. e.g. Like this and then I realise that there's only 5 minutes on the clock.

    Blue pen

    It's either scanning so that markers can mark on their computers or taking a whole lot of papers individually for each marker which is then double marked, maybe quadruple marked, perhaps more. I have no clue about whether or not the papers will be scanned, but I'm sure you should be fine if you...

    Section 3 - Extended Response

    Did you write a fair bit? I hear that some markers deduct marks if the response is too short i.e. 6-7 pages in the writing booklet.

    Did we have write the quote in our creative??

    Well, if you made reference to the stimulus at various points of your story, you should be fine. As long as the marker can see that you've integrated the stimulus, you should be within a constant range of Band 5-6, depending on how you applied literary techniques, maintained a steady narrative...

    Section 3 - Extended Response

    Your thesis seems fine, as long as you supported it throughout your response and kept a good flow, you should be within the Band 6 range. (Also, I need to learn how to multi-quote rather than double post.)

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    I've read some creative writings revolving around food, but told in such a euphemistic way that you'd think it's erotic literature.

    General Thoughts: English Paper 1 (AOS)

    Please. Stop. With. Mixing. Numbers. With. Words. If you can, also try to avoid slicing off vowels here and there. It's painful to read, even if it's an online forum. Contractions are fine in moderation, but try to limit their use. As for your choice of stimulus, I didn't do the exam, so I...
