Ep. 40
Exams and tests where students have a prompt to respond to, either a text statement or an image, and have to produce an extended piece of original writing
(like the NAPLAN Writing Test, the GAT Writing Task and Module C of HSC Advanced English)
often have students agonising over things that, in terms of the mark scheme, don't matter.
Writing tests are simply vehicles for your teen to show their writing skill and level.
The actual topic or story-line they choose is not important overall.
Join me behind the scenes of these types of exams and tests to discover:
- what is most important in them,
- the specific TEN criteria your teen will be marked on, one way of another,
and
- why your teen should select an idea that allows them to showcase all ten elements to the highest level.
