Section 1 - My answers were vague and waffle.
Section 2 - My story left out a load of stuff, and made little sense.
Section 3 - My argument was weak, and I rushed it.

I figure I can't screw it up as badly as the trials, least most of my answers made some sort of sense

i think i did well, but than again i thought that for trials...and hey those marks where nothing to be proud of. My argument probably wasn't as cohesive as it could have been and my answers to section 1......oh section 1 how i hate you. but pretty happy with my creative writing. except I have read alot of people are freaking out because they didn't state which quote they were using - well neither did i - but i went for an implicit approach, rather than "and than we all belonged and i praised her and confirmed her existence" lol.

I wrote about my set text, and TWO additional texts. Then got out of the exam and realised that BOS only asked for one of my additional ones. So I stuffed up. I could have written so much more but spent freaking 15 minutes on that last text. :(

I didn't state which stimulus i was using for the creative writing either! fuck?? But apart from that I felt my creative writing section was the best one i did.
Section 1 - Wrote too much for the 2/3mark qu's and not enough for the 5mark!!
Section 3 - Ran out of time. Wrote too much on my presecribe texts! had to start dot pointing!! ahh! did anyone else run out of time????

Section 1 - Didnt write enough, didn't go too well in the 5 mark :(

Section 2 - Waited till last on this one, I usually love creative writing, I ran out of time, ended it crap and didn't 'celebrate relationships' enough.

Section 3- Actually quite pleased with it.
