  1. I do ordinary english… i wrote a narritive instead of a personal essay… will i get any marks?? it was a gd essay…

    1. I wouldn’t worry too much about it… a narrative could be considered a narrative from a personal point of view which could be seen as a personal essay… you’ll get marks don’t worry about that… remember examiners are trying to give you marks if you attempt to answer a question! think about your next exam.. english paper one is dead an buried and you’re one step closer to your summer hols 😉 everyone makes silly mistakes… this isn’t worth worrying about it’s a minor thing!

  2. I didn’t get to finish my essay but i had a plan done in my booklet …… do you think they might give me a few marks for that as well ??

    1. Anything you write under a question has to be marked as part of that questions. Examiners know that you need to plan an essay and that’s exactly what you did! Fail to plan, plan to fail! Don’t worry you’ll get a few marks for the planning!

  3. I answered Text 3 (B) and I talked about how young people don ‘t read enough and it improves your vocabulary etc. I wrote it really well, but after I realised were they meaning the importance of books in YOUR LIFES as the reader, or your life as who you are talking to in genearl, as I did the second 1! 🙁
