Any tips to write a good narrative essay for paper 3?
To write a good narrative essay you must keep the features of a narrative in mind like:
i) It must have a sequence of events
ii) It must contain speech (dialogues)
iii) It must have description of atleast one place, character, etc.

hey any tips for variant 32??
appearing a few days later...
For the directed writing task..develop your style of writing..more than picking up content from the passage develop the style and accuracy of the way you write those points..more marks are awarded for style of writing than picking up content from the passage..
For the second part ie. the Narrative or Descriptive essay know the features of each and make sure to apply them in your piece of writing..examiners award more marks if features are clearly reflected ..
All the best for your exam!

Quite sorry if I'm late, but as far as I am aware, you shouldn't skip a line when going between two paragraphs, you should just carry on, on the next line with the indentation.
Yeah, but when CIE prints their inserts, the paragraphing is like this--

Video provides a powerful way to help you prove your point. When you click Online Video, you can paste in the embed code for the video you want to add. You can also type a keyword to search online for the video that best fits your document. To make your document look professionally produced, Word provides header, footer, cover page, and text box designs that complement each other.

For example, you can add a matching cover page, header, and sidebar. Click Insert and then choose the elements you want from the different galleries. Themes and styles also help keep your document coordinated. When you click Design and choose a new Theme, the pictures, charts, and SmartArt graphics change to match your new theme.


They leave a line between each paragraph and there's no indentation....
suppose you're right, do they cut marks for it??

That paragraph is for, from what I can tell, ICT. Not English. You should indent your writing, what I'm trying to portray is this:
