According to last years stats. An A+ was a 23.5+ out of 30 for English.

Thats only a 7,7 and 8. Given, that the exam seemed quite hard, id say it will be similar, if not lower?

But even still, thats still pretty low.

Here are the rest,

A+ --> 23.5 - 30.0
A   --> 21.0 - 23.5
B+ --> 20.0 - 21.0
B   --> 18.0 - 20.0
C+ --> 16.0 -18.0
C  --> 14.0 -16.0

And so on

Don't you mean 8, 8 and 7.5?

I'm probably going to maul whoever came up with that Whose Reality prompt.

about the whole cartoon thing, i basically said that the parent has dehumanised themselves through the use of disgusting and violent behaviour..something along the lines of that

yeah i put animal like behaviour, but considering this donkey was the only agressive supporter, the surrounding spectators could have thought it was being an ass, especially when you look at their facial expressions

You realise that a speech can be a student piece of work published in a VCE liftout, or something of the sort. When they say newspaper I'm pretty sure they leave it limitless. I think they will be very lenient on this type of thin for Context as well, from what I've heard.
