I haven't done many essays on Hamlet. I need to do a revenge essay to . I have so much essays to write on Hamlet plus learning the quotes. My teachers going to have a lot to correct
lol. I must start Hamlet tomorrow. And do more of the comparative and make sure not to go off topic this only happens in the 70mark question.
Yeah same, I've to re-redo my comparative essay from my mock, apparently I didn't improve after I re-did it last week
I've to same problem, and not addressing the question after each paragraph. Jesus there's only so much I can say :rolleyes: I think I'll attempt the two-part question, I might not lose much marks that way

It's hard with having to compare 3 texts sometimes I feel that I'm writing too much. Sometimes I end up bringing relationships into it when I'm doing general vision. I hope GV+V comes up but Theme comes up more. Yeah thats my problem too not always addressing the question. The paper 2 seems really long like having to write 3 essays. I need to practise I'm not sat a english higher only the ordinary .0 -

My teacher gave us notes on the three I don't like literary genre. I only took the How Many Miles to Babylon at the beginning then decided to only do GV+V and Theme. An when my teacher set homework for Literary Genre I told her I was only studying the other two . I just did a different essay. I can't stand literally genre it doesn't seem like something I would remember and the dialogues an things.
Not many people do the essays my teacher gives. I'm usually one of the few who do give her work.
Is anyone elses class like this? not many doing essays set? or handing up work?0 -

Yeah I feckin hate Literary Genre, it's so boring describing the setting, how each text is narrated, etc. General vision is easier IMO Not really, only recently has my teacher said we can either do the essays or not but the majority do it. 0 -
Yeah, it seems silly - they did it one year in my school and apparently it was a disaster. I wish we got to do cultural context though, mine would fit so wellMysteriouschic wrote: »My teacher gave us notes on the three I don't like literary genre.

To the Skype peoples - yay there's a few of us! :P PM me your usernames whenever so we can add each other and stuff. I can maybe try tomorrow night if everyone wants to, but I can't make any promises.
Hmmm, on second thoughts I think you're well suited, you'll fit in no bother.
Am, why so harsh? All I said was that it was a bit silly of the people I know to hate a place they no nothing about. Sorry if that makes me a horrible person!
And I won't fit in there no bother because I'm not going there. :P0 -

My teacher doesn't care whether people do the essays she says it's up to them .
Only the people who are really putting in the work or hoping for high grades do the essays.
I wonder how many people actually do Literary Genre :S it must be easier to get marks if less attempt that question. Hopefully it'll be Theme and GV+V which comes up.0 -

I know I love that question. It's similar to social setting which was on ordinary level as well. I find that really easy to do it's easier to remember things.0
