How do you go about the two essays?
For the first essay, I'm still unsure what the right way to "present the information given" actually is, and how you'd link all the info together in a logical flow.
And for the second where you present your point of view IIRC, is it supposed to be a persuasive essay or an opinion piece?
The great thing about the GAT is that you have a lot of free licence in terms of the way you want to write! As long as you address what they want you to, you can write anything. I don't remember following a strict structure for my pieces in 2015 or 2016, I just let the words flow, started new paragraphs when I felt like I needed to and all that
seriously, it's not like it's an English exam that you're getting marked on. But make sure you try to mention the theme for the year in your writing somewhere! It's good for a laugh. In 2015 it was 'the Cat in the GAT', and I think last year was Shannon Noll iirc??
Hi, yes this is my first full GAT. I've done a practice GAT at school, but I want more!!! Thanks for the responses!
You're the first person I've ever seen say "I want more!" in relation to the GAT
if you're a keen bean, you can go do past GATs but seriously your time would be better spent doing literally anything else. The GAT is sorta like an IQ test almost, and it's really one of those things you can't study for. Just concern yourself with trying when you're in there for the real deal
apart from that, use your time more wisely by studying for your other subjects.
