whats the episode whats the show what elective is your section 2 what is the theme of your essay

It's the first episode of True Detective for Worlds of Upheaval. Theme for my essay is don't even ask me

I know what I said previously about not changing my text too but I've considered using Cronos 1993 because I am also comfortable with that movie and I think it could be better for establishing threads throughout my texts

What are the main differences for crafting discursives in ext vs adv? Like, do ext ones want explicit reference to the power of literature/literary worlds? Or do they want to see more experimentation?

Literary worlds, and depending on the question, it could be a discursive on writers writing about writing. In my trial exam, our question was basically to discuss how three of the given extracts discuss creating a literary world or smth like that.
Discursives in adv aren't necessarily focused on anything in particular, just whatever the question asks, so they could be about anything (and of course the standards are lower in adv than in ext).

Esp. for a 10 marker what our teacher taught us is that you essentially bring in an essay loaded with literary theory which shows like an understanding of the purpose or value of literary values and you leave gaps in that to link in the unseen texts. Like my 10 mark structure is:

Intro: Thesis --> Text 1/Text 2 illustrate bla bla bla --> Ultimately they (align with question)
Body: Sub-Idea 1 --> Literary Theory --> Analysis --> Text 1 --> Literary Theory --> Analysis --> Text 2/3
Ultimately, Text 1 & 2 (QUESTION) and show how literary worlds (XYZ)

Thanks for the tip! In regards to literary theory, I'm wondering how could we embed it meaningfully in our responses without name dropping them but rather letting them guide our interpretations.

Does anyone have any tips on how to make really specific and in depth analysis with Section One?? I have a couple of different lenses under my toolkit and I think I know them well but I'm just trying to reach for those insights and flesh things out!!!

Apparently I've been told that my analysis is too general, not specific and needs to go more in depth .

What is the right mindset when approaching these questions...
