Hey Sir, sorry if you're busy but I did paper 2 today and I keep kicking myself, I'm wondering if you can put me out of my misery; I chose to describe and explain (Q6) but I didn't link the start and the end. Could this be the difference between two grades?

[bm124]

@jtalabi Highly unlikely- they mark the whole piece and they mark positively so don't panic. Q6 was a great question.

Your a legend.

u is a massive beast thx for getting me through my paper

[jtalabi]

@bm124 Thanks Sir, that's such a relief. You've been an awesome help - I feel like you're one of my teachers. Yeah I liked Q6, I thought I'd be a bit different and avoid Q5. I particularly love your 'Vultures' analysis by the way. Thanks again!

Wish you were my teacher, then I would probably get the A I'm targeted

[philwelzy]
