Default English paper disappointing results

I recently appeared for the bsc english paper from Punjab University. The result was very discouraging 39/100. I believe I have always been good at creative writing & essays but my score is very low.
Alot of people from my class who are rote learners and only studied english bsc keybooks got much better marks.

I want to ask is the checking standard at CSS also supportive of giving higher marks to rote learners and keybook answers.??
Or is creative writing and personal interpretation given higher credit..?? Please someone who has passed the written with good marks reply.. so that as an aspirant we can study in advance.

Yes .


Maybe you are not getting answers because you wanted any one with passed written examination , to answer . I have not passed yet , but , one thing is sure that creative thinking and analytical skills are given more preference over rote learning .
