XXuni_loverXx Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Right now, I'm in English LangLit HL and have the option to drop it to SL cuz I already have 3 other HL subjects. However, the sole reason why I'm hesitating is because of the more time we get during exams. I feel as if the extra hour lets me write MUCH MORE and go more in depth in my analysis that I would be able to in SL. What do you guys think?

Nomenclature Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Don't worry, you will have a different exam than the HL kids and less to write about. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXuni_loverXx Posted October 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Could you expand on how HL and SL differ? From what I've asked my teachers, they seem the same but just SL has less time. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomenclature Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 The courses cover similar material with HL going more in depth/tougher grading (never took lang/lit so i can't attest how to how much more difficult HL is). I can tell you that the exams are not the same, as with all IB subjects. Not only did students analyze different texts, HL had texts A and B for part 1 and C and D for part 2. SL just had one text for each part. The mark schemes for Paper 2 were also different. The exams are not the same, nor is the grading. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
