Well, according to my teacher who is a SPM marker, content doesn't give your marks. The marks for your essay is given solely based on your language, unlike BM where isi stands for about 35 marks. So, ya, narrative essay will be better because you can express your creativity and use all sorts of flowery languages which some factual essays restrict. smile.gif

Is SPM English same with SPM English 1119 ? What does GCE-O stands for ? Is it same with English 1119 ? So confused  rclxub.gif

FYI,

You are getting 2 grades from an English paper you sit in SPM.

For one, they grade it according to SPM standard; for the other one, they grade it based on the GCE O-level standard.

GCE O-level is the one those international students are taking.

So, GCE O-level English refers to English 1119.

When examiners grade your English paper according to O-level, they will just look at your essay(s).

Lol.
The 1119 is the subject code. The UK part is called the GCE OLevel.
English 1119 used to be optional as a part will be sent to the UK for assessment as the GCE O Level. However, since now it is compulsory, they would like to clarify the subject taken with the subject code.
So, the additional UK score is NOT your 1119 score. 1119 is the entire package, which would most likely be your English score.

Read more books / newspapers , watch more English movies and brush up on your grammar , then you're good to go .

I believe it'll be sent to trained local representatives marked to the standard of the O Level, or merely sent to the local Cambridge centres.
The fact that it'll be sent to any companies directly in the UK would be ultimately expensive, because of the high amount of candidates. Better start a research on this. bruce.gif

actually to get 1119 A1 is not too hard. Anyways they hire British examiners to grade the papers according to the British O-level standard
