praying for a 20 mark discursive honestly, that way theres no way i do worse than the people who only prepared creatives
but discursives are kinda yucky. anytime i write a discursive im basically writing a creative but discussing the topic from a characters pov (allowed bc discursive is pretty much a free for all)

im really hoping that it’s discursive but my teacher reckons it’ll be a choice because imaginative has already been asked, discursive hasn’t been around for long so people haven’t been studying them in junior years and so they all suck, and persuasive is just gross
that will make it the third year nesa giving out choice options 💀
if they give out persuasive, that will be so fun, back to primary school selective test vibes

nah you’d genuinely be godly at writing a discursive you just need to write and be urself, shove a couple of motifs and anecdotes in and you’re good

our school basically said theres no limits and that its the most flexible writing form in hsc, so long as you discuss two perspectives in a situation u can use figurative language, visual imagery etc. but ofc u can take it the more "essay" way as long as u keep a conversational tone

omg fr, but if it does require a reflection, I hope the mark allocation is 12-8 and not 10-10 or else the marker marking will see dry tear stains on the paper
