Context- question

[soccerboi]

When writing an expository essay, can i include personal anecdotes in the discussion of my ideas and am i allowed to use personal pronouns?

[lexitu]

Yes and yes

[saheh]

Teachers love it!

[soccerboi]

if i include a personal anecdote would it become a hybrid piece or is it still called an expository essay?

[saheh]

My teachers call it a hybrid
But I still reckon its a form of expository, as you are 'exposing' a personal side in regard to the prompt. because if it's an anecdote it's not imaginary

There are quotes from Growing up Asian in Australia that i want to use but contain profanity. So when i use them, do i write it as it is or substitute symbols into the rude words?
e.g "Are you fucking homo?" should i just write "Are you f*@king homo?"

For SACs, ask your teacher (in case they have a gripe about swearing). For the exam, go for your life - after all, this is your text
