Glad I've been of help... but we'll check when you pass with good marks. ;)
I am a Mauritian, and Creole is my native language. We're no different. You get only 20 marks for language in the General Paper. 30 are given for content, for knowledge (and the ability to use it to impress the examiner :D).
You have to change your way of presentation, if you want to change the marks you'll gather. I've tried to complete most of what I could today. I won't grade this one, because you attempted it with a good lack of understanding. Try to apply the things you could learn, and do the essay I gave you yesterday. I'll try to mark that one. :)

Actually, i can't be of any help for you; you'll need to wait till someone or ~Alpha come online. :)

Thanks Nobo. Ever-so-sweet. (:
If you appreciate my efforts, sincerely pray for me. :)
AND, pass well in your exams Studiofix. The main reason I'm helping you when instead I should be taking a break from SF is because I'm trying to make you score better. Admit it or not, your life will depend on what you achieve now.
Good luck. :)

Lol. If she doesn't, I'll kill her from distance. :P You see, I don't like wasting my time. ><
I'm sure she will though... I saw her check 4-5 times while I was writing this. :)
Glad you appreciate Nobo. :)

omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg Can this get any better? I am seriously happy:( OMG I now get what they want from me as a student of GP! You know first I added many political factors in the conclusion and was so encouraged that it is correct, but I have erased it thinking I was going off topic. you have made so much effort to help me in this.. thankyou really thanks a a lot. I feel so ashamed of wasting ur break on my work :-[ I really do hope I pass this time. I'll take into account on the arguments and the persuade elements i should put in an essay. you gave me a very good example, I shall go through it again..
and about the research u asked me to do and then write an essay about, thing is i don't have time at all. I am practising the General paper Past papers choosing a question which I think i have a quiet good knowledge about. however, i'm definitely gonna try all my best to perform and fulfil my essays and make them stronger of course. Will try to eliminate the 'I' unless it asks me for my opinion, which are the Questions I like to relate on. anyways I do really appreciate your comment and your complete thought. thank you thank you<3, and hopefully will come here to announce you my grades! :D ..
you might get the impression that my essays are short because I use a macbook word document programme that might be weird. although my essays are in between 500-600 words.

If it helps you perform better, my time is worth it. (:
OMG > That makes 12 times. ;D
You are most welcome. :)
By the way... about the second essay you gave me. It was relatively better than this one, but if you are set on the path of improvement, I would suggest you try other themes as well. The kind of essay on music would not fetch good marks, unless you are a darn professional in the subject, so that you can make better comparisons.
Well, actually, I was going to give you a model essay... for the title I suggested. It is very common for examiners to talk about developing countries. If you can manage to get few hours, then please, do attempt it.
May I ask in which subjects you are well-versed? It's not only about knowing something well. You should also check on the probability that you'll get it for the exams, though you can never be sure. Plus, I strongly recommend you to at least for one theme make good research on and build a stack of information-- that is prudence. Your examination will last for barely 1 1/2 hours. You should make sure you don't spend this precious time regretting the preparations you could have made.
quite* (common mistake ;))
Beware of 'I' questions... Frankly speaking, I would never get an A if I did those. I find them better suited for oral exams. ::)

Now, that is so much better than any 'thank you' in the world. :)

Ah... okay... I just got that impression cause I thought there are many things that could have been mentioned.
And by the way, you are not penalized for writing much for the essay part, even though it increases the chances of making grammar mistakes. I tend to write about 800 if I get the time to.
Bless you. (:
