HOW TO SURVIVE IB LIT PAPER 1 II how I got a 7 + example IB literature paper 1

[@ashley-e2q5g]

Hi everyone! I've uploaded some samples of my notes formatting, Paper 1, Paper 2 and my HL Written Assignment to this google drive for you to peruse at your leisure. Keep in mind that I did these under the conditions of the old syllabus, which has all the same marking criteria, but in HL we only had to do one guided literary analysis rather than two. Therefore, for you guys, the analysis and structure will be the same but everything will just be a little bit shorter (basically, they won't be expecting you to write a 6 page long response under the new syllabus) - Enjoy! 😊​ drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KKWEOOdbiNbNdPr3rPntqq8bpba0P-X-?usp=sharing

Hi quick question! I printed the poem "The Hug" and analyzed it without writing the essay, and when I went to check on yours and what you captured of it, I saw that we had COMPLETELY different interpretations of the meaning as I saw a woman who is a prostitute looking for affection wherever she can find it and her illusion of what love is, and then I saw yours and am kind of freeking out because it was completely different. Is it normal to interpret something so different than someone else who got a good score on the paper? Do you think my interpretation is reasonable or absolutely crazy hahaha. Plus help

Amazing once again! I will definitely take this into revising for my paper 1 this November, your videos have been so helpful and I can't appreciate or thank you enough for your guides :')

[@ashley-e2q5g]

Wow, that is actually so interesting! It's cool how some of the common threads of the analytical sentence structure come through in the 4 C's like conventions = technique and then changes/connections = effect and concepts = meaning. I also love the "changes" aspect of that acronym because something I didn't mention in this video is how important it is to analyse when the tone, structure or perspective changes (if you look at mark schemes for past papers, addressing these shifts is usually included) so that's awesome that it's built into your process of analysis - thanks for sharing and helping others with their exam prep too!!

[@avance1845]

Thank you so much!! I got full marks on my exam

[@ashley-e2q5g]

Aaaah! That's amazing!!!

[@_sdamalia]

[@gloriaaaaa]

This is such a helpful video! Probably the best study tips one I've seen. Thank you so much Ashley!

[@julianpickertmayen7913]

Just wrote my paper 1 and this really helped out! Thank you so much

[@elledw3844]

[@kitfisto999]

[@ashley-e2q5g]

My best friend did this metod (in spanish) and had a 7 band. Im gonna do it tomorrow, hope I translated everything right. Thank u so much. Love from Costa Rica.

[@hanieh3133]

Thank you so much for these videos. I just discovered your channel, and it's so funny to me how I chose the same subjects as you and want to be a medical student as well! Well, hopefully, I can achieve great things just like you. Keep creating amazing content!

[@ashley-e2q5g]

Subject and career twins 🥳🥳 That makes me happy that you're getting something out of the ib videos! I also vlogged my last term of endocrinology so there'll be a bit more med content for you coming once I finish editing that at my snail's pace haha

[@mariacamilareyes9495]

This helped my overwhelmed mind so much, thank you Ashley!! I was wondering if you had any other sort of social media or anything were there are more academic tips.

[@ashley-e2q5g]

Aww, I’m glad! At this point it’s just this channel 🙂 (as you can probably see, I already can only find time to upload here sporadically let alone other locations haha)

[@lillywatchesstuff0811]

Loved the video. Could you by any chance upload a copy of the list of words to describe tone that you used to study? It would be of great help. Many thanks.

[@ms.lorena8758]

Your page is amazing and I hope it is helping my DP kids!

[@rvkon]

im taking hl a lit next year. This video really helped me get rid of the hesitation and fear that I had about the course, so thank you so much!! Is the course as demanding as people say?

[@crispypotato1677]

wow, it’s so coincidental how my english lit paper 1 is next week and you have made a video dedicated to it💕Thank you so much for doing this. Could you send me the list of adjectives you refer to for the authors tone?

[@ashley-e2q5g]

I tended to just google "list of adjectives to describe author's tone" and so I'd use a slightly different list each time. But I do particularly like the final page of this one that groups adjectives that refer to similar tones: pchs.psd202.org/documents/adepew/1522547245.pdf - good luck for your paper 1 next week!

[@muhammadqadir4260]

Hi, just came across your video. it's amazing but for a long time, there's been no new upload. please keep uploading new videos, a humble request.

[@Wellspring604]

Hi Ashley, I'm helping someone with Literature HL, and I wanted to double check the requirements for Paper 1 at this level. Is it correct that one should do 2 literary analyses for Paper 1 (prose and poetry) without guiding questions? Thank you!

[@sidsingh8688]

[@desteny1393]

Could you talk about how to score well on the language lit Internal oral as well :)?

[@ashley-e2q5g]

Unlike papers 1 and 2, the setup of the IO has changed quite a bit with the latest syllabus so I don't think I'd be able to speak on it with confidence unfortunately!

[@lauraward6443]

Do you do tutor

[@ashley-e2q5g]

Hi, this reply may be too late but yes, I am doing a small amount of online tutoring at the moment. If you're still looking for a tutor then you can email me at [e-mail] and let me know what you're looking for help in :)
