iGCSE English Language Question One

Yo. I just did an iGCSE English Language question one answer from the June 2014 exam, and I was wondering if anybody would be willing to mark it? It'll only take 15 minutes and I'm like mad worried about my exam this tuesday; I've got no idea if I'm doing anything right at all. I understand the tone is absolutely ****... but are my development points alright? I really wanna know what mark I'd get out of 15 for the reading part of this question.

If anybody could mark it with some feedback they would literally be so my messiah tbh.

Thanks hella if anybody's willing to do this I guess.

Here's the mark scheme: http://www.cie.org.uk/images/188180-june-2014-mark-scheme-2.pdf

You've used a lot of the points listed in the mark scheme which shows clear understanding of the text and will get you a good reading mark (14 or 15). Your writing style is also engaging with good use of vocabularly. I would give you a 4 for writing because some points felt very list-like. Remember to use words like however, therefore, despite as it will help link your points together.

41/50 for an A and 31/50 for a B approximately using last year's grade boundaries.

No problem, that was admittedly a very strong response to question 1. Good luck for tomorrow! I really hope it's an interview or letter and not a formal report😂😂
