Quick question. Are creative and persuasive considered separate subjects? Or are they combined into one??
[deleted] Pretty sure they're combined into 1 test overall in the overall grades.
selectiveschoolexamcandidate Is adding a rebuttal for persuasive a good idea?
Rohan16 Overall I think rebuttals are useful and helpful in a persuasive writing piece, since some people might not know real facts about the specific topic, so everything in this case the supports your arguments is helpful. In case if your doing a rebuttal, don't provide false information as that'll just ruin your argument. Remember the more skills you show in your writing the higher marks you might get.
selectiveschoolexamcandidate Thanks a lot
Sorry I am asking so many questions, I am just a bit nervous for the exam
Rohan16 Nah its alg, everyone at this point is anxious about it anyways.
