lol so many people ran out of time

I mean I didn't do half of q5, but I still wrote 6 pages for creative and 7 pages for the essay (small writing)

idk how you went so off track to the point where you didn't do a whole section lol

7 pages for the essay? Damn. Makes me think I kind of did crap then. I only did around 3.5-4. I hope quality>quantity works in my case.

It was the best essay I've written all year and I'm no douche, but I sorta regret going into it so deeply. It took me 43 minutes to write, where I could've very easily gotten the extra 3 marks for q5 had I spent less time on that. Because let's face it, It's much harder getting a 13/15 to 14-15/15, then just doing some short answer that's derived from what's in front of you.

I was finished with 5 mins left... did the extended response first and ended up with three booklets, followed by short answers and I did creative last with just 2 booklets.

holy shit the question for advanced paper 2 conflicting perspectives has been leaked. apparently st helenas accidentally gave out the advanced paper 2 and a couple students had a look before they realised the mistake and took them back. it required TWO related text and it was about conflicting perspectives working against an individuals understanding of the particular topic. also to be written in the form of a radio transcript. if this is true im really worried
LOL yea seems legit

5 pages for seciton 1? lol. i wrote 3 max= 30 mins. wasted 5 min on that bloody identity question.
You just have to bullshit and pretend you know what you're talking about, add a lot of techniques and they'll give you marks. Pretty sure that if you read carefully, my identity one doesn't make sense. I wrote about 1.5/2 pages for the 5-marker; intro, 2 body & concl because a schoolmate posted her 15/15 response and I just copied her structure.

Study your heart out for paper 2. More marks...
And don't kill yourself over a fucking creative, life is too short for that.

The number of marks usually corresponds to how many techniques/ideas you should include, but I just put more than that to be safe.
