English Language AQA ENGB3 11th June 2012 exam

If you wanted an earlier time period why did you just do Question 3?

Well, what a ****ing shambles. Couldn't have asked for a better language acquisition really, the social interaction texts were superb in my opinion. However, the language change, what the **** was that? ****ing first of all the time periods where ****, ****ing 1933 and 2009, wave goodbye to pre-standardisation guys. I managed to write 4-5 pages for it and included some of key frameworks: lexical, grammatical and graphological (due to advertisement), however I just think I waffled on, despite including aspects of AO1, AO2 and AO3. I needed a C (81/120) for this paper and unfortunately I don't even think I have achieved that, which if not puts my university chances out the window since I would be doing this.

So ****ing gutted, a whole summer wondering whether I will be resitting next year To make things worse I have a history exam tomorrow, why is life so ****?

Exactly the same as me.

Q1 was an easy choice. Normally I like written texts, but I prefer when you can compare two of different ages, and when at least one is younger (both aged 11, when we've generally focused on under-5's CLA.. -_-)

Q4 I took one look at the modern text and decided I didn't want to do it. There was loads about graphology, but I would struggle to analyse the rest with my style of writing.

Q3 I preferred a lot, but after getting most the grammar stuff out the way I felt I was waffling on a lot about orthography and not much else.. Hopefully I managed to get enough context in there during the process...

I am quite worried about context for Q3- I ended up talking about how the desperation to be above the poverty line in times as theses may have influenced why the language was so polite even though you could feel undertones of clear frustration. Total rubbish but I felt like I hadn't written any context

I did Q1 and Q4 and I thought Q4 was ok , like obviously not a lot of language change as in orthographical etc but, you could of talked about technology and how it has an impact on language like new coined words and blends etc, it was mainly context based though I thought. And Q1 was ok too but, at some points I just felt I kept repeating myself, don't worry I'm sure you have done fine honestly!

I thought the exam was okay. I thought I might try the writing question before I went in as everybody had decided they were gonna do spoken, but as the writing were 2 11year olds, I was like lol no cuz I've only ever done it for young children really.. But I thought question 1 was really good I had loads to say.

I thought the change questions were great texts!!! But I did question 3, I liked it and I wrote loads, just not sure if I wrote the right stuff. Didn't get a lot of A02 consciously in, whereas I did for question 1.
