The comparative essay

jj123

Which is more likely to come up this year cultural context or general vision and viewpoint? Our teacher reckons both could come up this year but if vision and viewpoint doesn't come up I'm screwed because Im finding it hard to learn off cultural context! What do people think?

I have been told to do Themes and Cultural context by a few people. Personally, I hate General Vision and View Point.

If you don't like Cultural Context, do themes (it's easy). What are your texts?

2009 theme and cc
2008 theme and lg
2007 gvv and cc
2006 theme and cc
2005 gvv and lg

You got 2002 wrong, was Theme & CC.
Here's my reasoning of why it's going to be Theme & CC.

2002: Theme & CC .
2006 : Theme & CC .
2009 : Theme & CC .
2011: Theme & CC.

4 year gap at first time,
3 year gap second time,
So a 2 year gap this year meaning 2011 Theme & CC.
I could have just wasted alot of time analysing patterns though!

+1 on this. These are the two our english teachers believe will come up too. All guesswork though.

Comparative is easy. You only have to have two essays prepared and you're guaranteed a question. You're also guarnteed to know the question as there's so many texts, the question has to be vague to fit in all texts
