For "who has the greater influence on Paul's development: his parents or Keller?"

Could someone please tell me if it was alright to say both have a great influence but ultimately it was his own self that had the greatest influence?
How much did you dedicate to talking about Paul's own self?

1 and a half paragraph?

i did the maestro one about influences as well and talked about personal devlopment and musical development and who has the greater influence in these(keller or nancy and john) and then in my however paragraph i just wrote rubbish about how the students of darwin high(bennie, rough stuff, megan and rosie) also have an influence but not as great as keller or paul's parents.

meh i'm just glad it's finished so i can now throw all my english stuff into the recycle bin :) i was considering burning it but then i didn't want to release excess CO2 and kill off the rest of the population.

How many pages did everyone write?

I wrote 2 paragraphs on Keller, 1 on his parents, and one on his own maturity.

Have a look at VCAA's shoddy expression in one of the topics on Interpreter of Maladies: These stories show how difficult it is ever really to know another person. =.=

Yeah my school studied Interpreter and On the Waterfront. I looked at the shoddy spelling in the second Interpreter prompt and the spelling mistake in the first On the Waterfront prompt and just laughed. I got some looks by the supervisors....

I found the Richard III prompts quite good. I'm quite weak when it comes to English but i think i wrote a decent essay. Plenty of quotes and the ideas were quite complex.

Richard was good because it was similar to 2008 and 2009 sample IIRC

Hmm... I chose the first one... seemed easier to me :-\ The second one was a bit too vague for my liking...

Lol second one to talk about TAM, this was the only section I liked, it was the first year so I knew the prompts would be on the general themes and I was right. Prompt 1 was very similar to our sac one; just changed the linking and topic sentences. All the ideas were the same. Hopefully this section saved me and I get 40>
