Just out of interest, did anyone run out of time in the end so they weren't able to go through and check their answers? I ran out of time and not sure how well I've done in achieving SPaG marks (8 in total)... :redface:

i had a few minutes left literally... so no not really

but what would happen if you only wrote 1 paragraph... do you automatically get 8 marks?? lol - i mean if it was perfect?

I wrote about 6 pages in total.. not happy with how it went tbh.
In retrospect, I could have analysed stuff a bit more and expanded on some points :sigh:

I think you would get the full 8 SPaG marks if you wrote one paragraph :rolleyes:

But I doubt that would be enough though :tongue:

I managed 7 and half sides in total, I made stupid spelling mistakes though. Those SPaG marks really help in pulling your grade up

*fingers crossed* I didn't make many spelling or grammar mistakes, since I didn't have any time at the end to check through my work :cool:

I came across this forum last night, when I was still trying to cram in some last minute revision. Happy I found it, and Slim really did come up in OMAM. So glad, I think I did alright in OMAM. I'm aiming for a B. :smile:

Also, I did AIC but I'm really scared because I stupidly answered BOTH questions instead of picking one. Argh, what was I thinking? Could this mean I'll get 0 in AIC... :frown:

OMG YES. I remember reading that on this forum and people said Slim'd come up. And he did!!! We also did a mock q in class on him. How lucky was that! :biggrin:
