Did anyone's school modify the questions to the CSSA paper 2 for standard?

For my school, we are guaranteed that Module A is a radio interview and we were given three potential essay questions for Module C.

My school didn't modify.
For those who do Wilfred Owen & Into the World - which question do you find the hardest?
Others said the question for Billy Elliot (Into the World) was hard, I found it so-so, easy but average at the same time. Wilfred Owen question (Module B) was mind blown and didn't get it at such. Distinctive Voices was amazing. ^.^

Hated the Wilfred Owen question, Distinctive Voices was amazing and Into the World was so-so.

Glad that some people thought Owen was weird/bad.

Anyone do Cosi? Module B.. I found that question quite misleading and didn't really understand what they were asking for. I liked my distinctive voice essay! Module C was okayish...

I wasn't sure whether or not to get personal as it asked how it influenced you. I just discussed how Nowra uses theatric devices to connect to the audience to influence them to conduct a social change, and then in the conclusion I talked how it changed my perception

I didn't want to get personal, I wrote a whole lot of crap for that... Don't think I'd get the marks though...

It was just a weird way how they phrased the question for WO. That's just me personally.
