Well according to the BBC GCSE English students wrote about Assassins :/

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/6963646.stm

i know i didn't, i wrote about an ogre called Shreik and a muslim called Allahn, they got lost in the magical forest of Dartmoor inhabited by Harry Scarhead. The plot was awful, in fact there wasn't really a plot stuff just happened, but hey, they gave me a B for English, i wasn't complaining :p

Anyone here ever wrote about assassins?
 
Nope, but good idea. You could write about all the creeping and killing and crap.

Let's just hope our future generation aren't all assassins!:rolleyes:
 
In one of my GCSE English courseworks I wrote about a hostage situation that had a tragic ending and it nearly got me full marks. It was my highest scoring piece of english course work I did.
 
Not really, but I did once have to right a 4 page essay on why some creepy looking nut-job decided to systematically rape, gas and dispose of an entire race of people.
 
To be honest not just saying this to go with the thread but my GCSE coursework creative writing was based on a kid killing his own dad and his friends after years of torment by them. It got me an A.
 
For my Standard Grade (scottish equivalent of GCSE) we had to write a story with the title The Assassin. It was part of the coursework, we were given the title and had to write a story based on it.

I got into trouble for setting mine during the day...


I remember for my final exam in standard grade I basically wrote a story of the Eminem song My Fault. About some girl OD'ing on mushrooms.
 
If I remember correctly I created a hugely elaborate apocolyptic future full of rebels and dodgy sounding russians it had explosions, my teacher didnt like it, she said that I didnt give enough character development, my arguement was that half of the characters died about a paragrapgh after they were all introduced. This may or may not have been for my coursework though, twas a long time ago.
 
I reckon Shakespeare's setting a bad example, what with all the tragedy and suicide and...crossdressing. Chaucer, now there's a good egg. Even if you can't understand a word he's saying.

I doubt it! The majority of the retards leaving school these days don't even know who Shakespeare is, let alone read any of his works.
 
I seem to remember one of my english coursework essays was about a battlefield in WW2, didn't get really violent though. I only managed to get C's in my coursework, then when i took my exams in the summer last year i got an A* in each english exam and 97% in my poetry exam :eek:
 
Yeah. I did the assassin one. Got an A* for it.

Frankly, I don't give two ***** if it's 'sickeningly violent', it was my best piece of coursework, and sort of fun to do.

Thinking back though, mine was probably one of the ones with 'extremely violent content'. Similies and metaphors to describe dismemberment always gets the marks up. :p
 
I wrote a rant slagging off my school, and (as of 2days ago) I got a C for it :D - though I should feel guilty as all my English courseworks were A* and I was predicted an overall A :p
