This was incredibly useful but i would prefer if there were more examples on the actual ideas that could have been explored in those practices. Anyone here for hsc 2021?
Within some sample responses, students didn't follow up a technique with a quote but rather used the technique and quote as individual examples to explain their effect. Would this be considered wrong? Should it have been technique of an example instead?
awesome video!! I have a question: how would 8 markers differ in terms of structure? Would I have to include more analysis or a longer intro or add another body?
If a comparison question that is 7-8 marks asks about a text you have already analysed in a prior question (for say, 3 marks), can you use the same techniques you already mentioned?
Could work, although if the first question is 3 or 4 marks, that often is a good way to ease yourself into the exam. I can’t see doing the 6-7 markers first being too disadvantageous though, as long as you still plan your time wisely!
By being ultra specific about what you discuss i.e. what exactly is it about the technique/quote you've used that produces the effect; what specific contextual features have impacted the meaning of the text (not just 'post-war' kind of language but actual events that may be relevant); what exactly is it about the FORM of the text that is important for the responder (not just that the text is, for example, a drama, but that as part of the dramatic form, soliloquies are used to humanise the character's internal angst etc.)
I would treat this as a shorter 6/7 marker. Intro (1 sentence) Body 1: Topic sentence + 2 sentences of analysis (instead of 3) Body 2: Topic sentence + 2 sentences of analysis (instead of 3) Conclusion (1 sentence)
Definitely do NOT do the essay first. Use the 10 minutes reading time to read the comprehension questions (first) and then analyse the different texts. When writing time begins, start answering the READING TASK, and after approx 45 minutes, move to the Essay.

Saving my English comp

Thank you so much, and good luck!
This is my new favourite TH-cam channel
This means the world!
Do we need to have a linking sentence at the end of each body paragraph or can we just end it like that?
In the interests of time, I would NOT include link sentences in comprehension tasks.
2 text question starts at 4:54

ur mum

As long as the technique in some way relates to the quote used then that is fine!
So for a compare question with two texts do you do two points but only compare on one of the points?
awesome video!! I have a question: how would 8 markers differ in terms of structure? Would I have to include more analysis or a longer intro or add another body?
There are no 8 markers as far as I'm aware! Last year, there were only 3, 4 and 5 markers so focus on nailing the 5-7 range for the mini-essays!
@@jeddle awesome, thanks for letting me know! 😊
Okay this is great so now that I've watched this can you take it down so no one else does thank you :)
(jk)
haha appreciate it!
If a comparison question that is 7-8 marks asks about a text you have already analysed in a prior question (for say, 3 marks), can you use the same techniques you already mentioned?
Yes, but change how you explain them in relation to the new question, and try and use one fresh bit of evidence for each text (if you can).
@@jeddle thankyou!
@YoGabbaGabba03 I wish I knew the exact answer but I don't know the system for this year.
What is your opinion on starting the short answer in reverse order, getting the longer responses out of the way first?
Could work, although if the first question is 3 or 4 marks, that often is a good way to ease yourself into the exam. I can’t see doing the 6-7 markers first being too disadvantageous though, as long as you still plan your time wisely!
Can we have sample texts for comparison question and the answer.
Hoping to get one out before finals!
Such a great video :)
How do I add more depth to my arguments in my essays?

@@jeddle Mmmm I see. Yeah that makes sense, thanks
Hi, may I know what should be the structure for a 5 marks question?
I would treat this as a shorter 6/7 marker.
Intro (1 sentence)
Body 1: Topic sentence + 2 sentences of analysis (instead of 3)
Body 2: Topic sentence + 2 sentences of analysis (instead of 3)
Conclusion (1 sentence)
@@jeddle Thank you!!
I'm not even in Year 12 I'm in Year 10 but these videos were very helpful in assisting me to prepare for my short-answer assessment! Thanks!!
This means a lot, thanks so much :)
Would you recommend tackling the essay before the short answers in paper 1?
Honestly the short answers first.
Definitely do NOT do the essay first. Use the 10 minutes reading time to read the comprehension questions (first) and then analyse the different texts. When writing time begins, start answering the READING TASK, and after approx 45 minutes, move to the Essay.
for a 6 mark question about one text, is 3 pieces of evidence from the text enough?
The people on this video are either underprepared or overprepared
😂
