I honestly found Context the most difficult to do out of all three, not sure why.

(I did Identity and Belonging - Context 4 as my context).

Really? I didn't think so. I found i could integrate it with all my 'rehearsed' paragraphs. I wrote paragraphs on human senses, technology, emotion, memory and environment. I would have liked to have had some more time, i absolutely loved the prompt.

Really didn't like the Identity and Belonging prompt... Didn't work very well with any of my pieces. Oh well! A lot of other people I talked to found it very accessible.

I was told that the WR prompt was something to do with illusion? Anybody got the prompt handy?

Hahahaha prompt was very easy for context, would have been very well suited to an essay. Ended up writing 4.5 pages of a story (inc. 3 haikus :D) in 30 minutes. STILL no adrenaline LOL.

I liked Whose Reality it fit my creative piece really well and I've done a similar prompt for a practice...only thing I'm worried about is the examiners not liking it as it's a story!

The prompt challenged me, but I got it done. I came up with a pretty sophisticated idea of how Generosity is explored in ACA.

The prompt for EC was brilliant, extremely adaptable. Quite similar to last year's in a way.
