<p>Small decisions one</p>
<p>examples-Rosa Parks(to get up from her seat, a very small decision that resulted in black equality)</p>
<p>To Kill a Mockingbird(2 examples)-to talk back to miss caroline/correct her(ruined her school experience) and taking objects from Boo's tree which resulted in Boo feeling welcomed and saving Jem and Scout from Bob Ewell</p>
<p>Great Gatsby-Tom informing Wilson of Gatsby's car...led to Gatsby's death and Wilson's suicide.</p>
<p>How did I do?</p>
<p>I should gave used TKAM… They all certainly seem to apply, it’s just a matter of whether your writing was satisfactory.</p>
<p>Well Tom knew what he was doing… haha not that small of a decision. Overall though, I like the TKM example, pretty good. I used The Great Gatsby too, but I said that over time Gatsby made many small decisions that led to his socially innept and selfish persona.</p>
<p>so what do you think? do i have a chance at a 12?</p>
<p>I feel like in To Kill a Mockingbird, the major consequences weren’t as big as they were in the other 2 examples.</p>
<p>The Rosa Parks one lead to great victories for the Civil Rights movement and the Great Gatsby lead to many deaths and broken hearts.</p>
<p>You can’t tell just by examples, sorry. But everything’s pertinent, so you’re certainly on the right track for a 12. But still a loooooooong way from being certain. You’re just gonna have to wait till the 20th.</p>
<p>okay thanks! I used good vocabulary like Rosa Parks’s stand for equality galvanized Black Americans across the nation to fight the battle for equality(or something like that)… a little disappointed, in retrospect, that i forgot about Scarlet Letter</p>
<p>wow. Now that I think about it. Rosa parks was briliant. Fantastic example!</p>
<p>Yes, you have an excellent shot at a 12</p>
<p>rosa parks and the gatsby example are beast. wish i thought of those</p>
<p>If you write eloquently, and filled up 1.5 + pages (and with 3 examples you’d better have), then it’s almost a sure 12.</p>
<p>What about more obscure examples? I used The Gambler by Fyodor Dostoevsky and Requiem for a Dream…will those do better or worse than the ones that everyone uses? (The Scarlet Letter, 1984, etc.)</p>
