ENGLISH ADV - PAPER ONE (3 Viewers)

There’s no way the Nesa sample answers get full marks is there ? Just read them - band 4 at best right ?

update: yeah just read through all of them thoroughly they kinda suck they say sample answer but I've always felt the sample answers were the bare minimum (band 4-5 standards)

But is that Nesa standards then or no

nesa standards of an average-mark-range i *think*. cos idt it's a sample answer indicative of a full marker, they said it was a sample response not an exemplar one as the above comment said

 

[synthesisFR]

I mean they use the word sample answer for all subjects including maths and stuff so I would have assumed that it’s held to the same standard which is of an exemplar but idk

 

[mmmmmmmmaaaaaaa]

But is that Nesa standards then or no

I was under the impression that it was minimum needed for a top range response (A-range or b6)

yeah my science teacher said that sample responses are the minimum to get full marks in a question (e.g 7/7) but it could work differently for other subjects

ok that's good then, cos i knew that the hsc markers were super lenient but i wasn't aware of how lenient they were, hoping for a top mark for section i then

If you’re doing the bare minimum for a band 6 then you don’t deserve it. Sweat out every question

\If that’s the full marks standard then English will align 1:1 and scale like a dog this year.

nah i doubt it, if you look at the marking guidelines of the past eng adv hscs you'll see the sample answers for section i of paper 1 are all crappy as well but the alignment is roughly the same (not 1:1). if anything, then alignment could slightly be worse than 2020-22 due to the fact we had no excerpt questions and the essay qs were all pretty broad, but that could easily be compensated with by scrutinising the essays (eg. if they answered every single aspect of the q, how sophisticated the idea was, etc), but iirc 2019 didn't have any excerpts either and the alignment seems more or less the same with 2020-22 ...
