I'm also in for a similar sucidal attemp :-D

Will compare results, IA
It was a good discision to take that attemp. Just after taking first exam, I was full of confidence that I can do it. I did my best in all the exams. Unfortunately I lost essay and scored 30, but there was a total of 701 marks that was way beyond expectations. I'm very hopeful this time.

One must not let the confusion prevail, and appear in CE, I ll suggest.

I really want to know which essay you attempted & what made it get only 30 marks. this would be helpful for me. Plus, my preparation is only 30% but I'm still taking exams this year just because I wanna have experience so that I go full fledged next time. What do you say about it?

I wrote on the hierarchy topic. The thing that i scored 30 was i think i had relevant knowledge and historical and contemporary perspectives on the issue.

I had chosen public administration as one of my optionals and it garnered me much detail of the subject. But i couldn't manage to grab 40 marks mainly due to two reasons. First, I wasnt aware of the style of essay writing i.e. the formal structure of intro, body and conclusion. Secondly i made a rough outline on last pages and wrote my essay. In last 5 minutes i reproduced it on first page but you know haste makes waste and I knew at the moment that i have spoiled my essay.

Thanks & what do you think why didn't the examiner give you passing marks for Essay? I always wonder what they have in their mind while checking essay paper. What exactly do they look for even when a candidate attempts it with enough knowledge but still he doesn't get it passed

Another thing is that the topic was a quotation itself. I wasn't familiar with the quote and all my perceptions came from brainstorming. I missed the actual meaning so may be it was one of the reasons that I failed. Try writing some essay in propper isolation and 3 hours time limit. It will let you judge your writing speed and the content that you can produce in 120~150 minutes.

Examiner looks for to the point knowledge. Dont beat around the bush. Dont leave any ambiguity or unanswered point that you have raised in the writing. Never ever go out of the ambit defined by the title of essay.
