Conclusions can help. I reckon you'd need at least 6 in Q4 for good marks, but you sound sorted

First Question: Thought I did well, 4 big paragraphs and introductory sentence
Second question:Was more difficult but wrote about 2 pages.
Third question: I think this question is similar to our controlled assessment, so I was used to the type of writing and analysing needed,approxiamtely 1 and half pages.
Fourth Question: FAILED IT! I didnt read the question properly, and I was so stupid and analysed Source 1 and 2; even though I did quite a lot of perceptive points and detailed conclusion, does anyone think I will get a few marks???
Fifth Question: Went quite well, hoping this will boost my grade up as I had done many practise questions similar to this and my teacher explained only yesterday, the features of a blog that I needed to include.
Sixth Question: I said to travel, thought it was easier to write about and talked about the physical experience and used a lot of similes when visiting interesting places like the Taj Mahal, Great Wall of China etc and I ended with a cylical structure.

The exam went ok, except for the fourth question which I completely failed as I did the wrong sources but I'm aiming for an A; will I be able to get it?? Or will I have to retake??

We were told not to do introductions and conclusions for questions one to four, although it seems on here like a lot of you have.

Q1 - I wrote two pages featuring about ten different quotes. I inferred about four of them, which should have been enough. I found it easy enough.

Q2 - I didn't like this one. From the headline I wrote about the words 'Slimezilla' (which I got confused with King Kong and referred to as being a giant gorilla), 'monster', 'threatens' and 'nuclear', however the first three were all effective in very similar ways. However, the image was alright; I wrote about how the colossal size of the jellyfish suggests the danger and power it could hold, the black surroundings suggests that other 'monsterous' creatures could be lurking in the deep, creating curiosity and apprehension, and the bright colours in the background made the jellyfish stand out (I didn't have time to express this point in enjoy detail). This all covered about three pages.

Q3 - I spent too much of the time on heavy textual analysis in the first couple of paragraphs, covering about too pages. I mentioned the linguist devises a lot, which I probably shouldn't have done, but the simile about the ants showed his emotions very well. I therefore ran out of time for analysing the second half. I also didn't analyse any of the 'obvious' emotions stated in the pieces (such as 'curiously', 'nervously' etc.) which would have probably saved me time.

Q4 - I really ran out of time here. I compared source three with source two and wrote three pages, but it only consisted of five paragraphs (three about source two and two about source three). Hopefully they were in enough detail.

Q5 - I didn't like the question. It was hard to be original, which is what the exam board are keen on us being. I wrote a sterotypical article about the winter and snow, snow, snow. I think I covered about three pages.

Q6 - This went quite well, I think. I enjoyed it, at least. I started by creating visual imagery with a description of trekking through remote mountains in Thailand, using lots of direct address and vocabulary. This covered about half a page, after which I went on to using persuasive techniques such as rhectorical questions, syndetic listing and facts and figures. However, I forgot that the article was supposed to be centred around 'young people' travelling, so I potentially lost some marks there in terms of content. Apart from that, that question was quite good, and I wrote about three and a half pages overall.

Q1: Fine.
Q2: Fine.
Q3: Hmmm. Maybe. I guess it is, but be careful of thinking about it in that way.
Q4: Surely you would know that Q4 is always Source 3 and another source? Always?
Q5: You'll be fine.
Q6: You'll probably be fine.

You might get a low A if you did really well on everything else. It's probably going to be a B though. Maybe a C, possibly, but probably a B.

WOW, you actually never read Q4 properly? No marks for grammar, and you make get a few for comparing the other source, I expected out of the 1000's of people to do this that everyone will at least read the question properly and get the answer wrong. You should ask your teacher, they will be of help.

Q1: started of doing only half of it then later returning to it, because it took me a while to get into the swing of it, i think i included like 5 quoted and basically said there lifestyles of having careless fashion senses of armoured bows and arrows and stuff, are seen to be rosey but the tribes are actually at great danger due to contact with the outside world or something. i wrote about a page and a half. how may marks do you rekon i will get?

Q2: for headline made link of 'slimezilla' and godzilla, made link of monster and how it stated that it weighed 200kg to make a link. i also wrote how it said threatened divers, which would create questions in the readers minds that only reading on could explain. on top of that i wrote about the ctypographics being bold and catching attention. for picture i wrote about the dark and gloomy colours representing the danger of the creature. also i wrote how it reinforced the word 'monster' used in the headline. also i wrote it gives a visual representation of what the article is about, as well as the obvious it attracts the reader.

Q3: wrote about 2 feelings depression and something else but for thoughts i couldnt find anything apart from at the end when he couldnt decide if he wanted to be dead outside the tent, or wait to be dead inside the tent. think i flopped, wrote about a page....

Q4: worte about different genres, audiences, purposes, tones, linguistic devices, rhetorical devices and vocab used. sound like a lot i know, but im worried if i actually analysed and made inferences as much as i should have. wrote about 2 and a half pages...

Q5: my best question wrote about winter, the snowball fights, the festive feeling, the presents, the family time and christmas dinner! wrote about a page and a half but i was most happy with that one.

Q6: didnt really have as much time as i would have liked to complete this question properly so i wrote about a page and a half about how seeing something and actually witnessing it is different, not enough i dont think, and expecting to lose most of my marks here..

how do you guys reckon i did?
