Media Paper 1 PPE - Learner response

1) Type up your feedback in full (you do not need to write mark/grade if you do not wish to).

WWW : Good, clear writing with some of the media terminology 
EBI: Basic timing- you must answer all questions - revision will help!

2) Did you succeed in meeting or exceeding your target grade for A Level Media? If not, how many additional marks do you need to achieve your target grade in this paper?

No, I needed atleast 19 marks in order to achieve my target grade.


We don't know exactly what grade boundaries AQA will set as this is a new specification. These are the boundaries we've used, based on last year's A Level exam but reduced slightly to account for the new specification (out of 84): 
 

A* = 78; A = 68; B = 56; C = 44; D = 32; E = 21.

Now read through the AQA mark scheme. This is vital as the paper was an official specimen exam paper and therefore the mark scheme tells us a lot about what AQA are expecting us to produce. The original question paper is here if that is helpful too.
3) Write a question-by-question analysis of your performance. For each question, write how many marks you got from the number available and identify any points that you missed by carefully studying the AQA indicative content in the mark scheme:


- Q1) 4/8 

The composition of the male and female signifies the hierarchy of success – male
dominant and female passive. The composition suggests male ownership of the female.
The perfume bottle is bold and masculine, the gold rectangle suggesting a gold bar,

typical of the construction of the meaning of success in the advert.
