How did people find the RUAE paper? I thought it was okay, and I managed to have some time to add to my previous answer!

In my year, a few people didn't know how to answer question 2, so I'm wondering how people found that question. For me, I knew it was a link question and found it fine.

I spoke to my teacher afterwards and she was saying that it wasn’t a link question so now I’m really confused because people were saying it was and I don’t actually know what it was

Do you think I had to put “car” in my own words
And does anyone remember what they put for in your own words question, it was the question before the conclusion question and I don’t think I did it right

That was a great paper! Hopefully I've got a good mark on it, especially since I don't think I did too well on critical reading...
