Guys I messed up..I wrote a story for the picture description question on the town. It started as a description and then turned into a story. Don't know what happened, I just didn't read the question properly. Do you think I will lose loads of marks?? Pls help

hey, I'm not completely sure but if it's mostly descriptive over narrative I think it should still be okay (my teacher said having some narrative elements in the description is not a problem)

My teacher says that they use the exact same mark scheme so it literally doesn't matter at all as long as the story was set in the picture and you described some elements of it (which you said you did). I did the same thing in my mocks and still got 35/40 so don't worry.
