I did the exam today and it was fine except for the last question i had a problem (don't worry i won't say what's the question about).
For the argumentative essay, if i mentioned a point and expanded it, do i still get only 1 mark for it?

My English exam was ok .. But the summary wasn't ok :/ ...

My summary was also meh.. I've got a question for everyone. The note taking section it asked "What tools does Costa use now?"
This was for the Dowsing article part. I wrote:
1. A rod with loops at either end
2. A pendulum
3. A twig or piece of wood

Not sure about my 3rd one since it seemed like there were only 2 correct answers in the paragraph.

In the articles you don't need to mention the points they place, it's only for reference, all your choice.
and if you did mention a point and expanded it, it should be fine don't worry

Yup that's the right answer for the last part of note taking and yeah I agree it seemed the first two were only correct, but twig was the third answer

For the people mentioning the summary, it wasn't really too bad
just the second part of the question was really tricky

It said your class is doing a project discussing the pros and cons of cars
write an article to reflect the differences
it's just a normal article don't worry

in my opinion it was no different than a normal argumentative essay( an article maybe).....my summary went fine, though it was indeed a bit difficult,i didn't really like the topic either ( atleast it wasn't very interesting at that time).
