How to Write an Area of Study Essay
Justina Shehata:
Hey! I wanted to ask: I am doing Frost's poems for AOS.
I will be using two of the poems in particular for my essay; however, I wanted to ask, can they give you a specified one to talk about in the trials. I am doing catholic trials by the way.
Also, how many related texts would I need; one or two?
Thanks!

Hey Justina! For AoS, they won't specify (because everyone gets the same question for every text), and they won't ask for more than one ORT, so just one for AoS is great! ;D

What!!??!! Our teacher made us pick and study three related texts from both discovery and Module C! Ughhh what a waste of time! So if they ask for "at least one" you aren't expected to do two (that is what my teacher told me)?
Thanks!

Definitely not!! I mean you can, and it may be advantageous, but what it means (and this is me relaying my teachers comments, and I agree with them wholeheartedly) is that they want a really good amount of ORT. Do one ORT, and do it very well ;D
If they wanted 2, they'd ask for 2! That can happen in Module C, but never in AoS ;D
Edit: Despite popular belief, BOSTES won't ever expect anything from you unless they ask you to do it ;)

Ughhhh I'm so annoyed right now hahaha, thank you for clearing that up for me though! At least I know now and I can just focus my attention to one of my related texts :) Thank you!
