Hi, can you please confirm that this was written in less than 15 minutes? I cannot see myself writing such a quality response of this length in that time, along with the time to read the extract.
Is there a way you would condense this, as I know (the hard way) it is the effect on the reader that gets the marks.
I think I tried to stay under 15 minutes but I wasn't being too strict.
With this series, I was trying to write responses that would secure full marks.
I think if it was an actual exam, I would try to be stricter with my timing and make fewer points if need be while ensuring that I comment on the beginning and end of the passage.
But I would still try to go into detail with the comments I make.
I do not think you need to make 8 distinct points for Q2 and Q3 - it is too many for the time given to answer this question. The student only needs to show evidence of meeting the criteria once to meet that level. This model answer is not reflective of what is expected in the exam given the timing.
