Loved the questions for A+C, though I didn't like the fact of the number of related texts, but I hated the question for B! Arrrgh.

A+C we're awesome questions, especiall A but i stuffed up B so bad!
mainly because i ran out of time as i spent on hour on A so yeah, but i dont mind casue i knew i could go well in all three sections if i spent an hour on one.
but im SO STOKED with my essay A that i dont really care.

A = Dialouge = The club
B = Poetry = Wilfred Owen
C= Institutions = Raw

Sections 1 and 3 were pretty easy. Poetry was a little harder, but still completely doable.

Of course I'd have to go with 'hate', simply because english as a whole is a silly course. I don't know how they saw journey as a concept, and I definitely don't know how they justify making it an area of study.

Easy paper. The questions were fairly straight foward and weren't tricky (unlike my trial).

love BOS except for module C. I only had one related text.
same, didnt expect it to ask for 2 related text, i just chucked in some random text in the intro and again in the conclusion, lolz, hopefully that would get me some more points.

Overall

I Reckon Journeys was okay..except the time constraints.. and paper 2 i loved everything except briar rose. they couldve got a more effective quote. there were very few themes to be honest present in the excerpt they extracted and hmm thats all i have to say
