We went to the Istituto Istruzione Superiore Cassata Gattapone in order to collect the first impressions of the students who had just finished the exam. We have interviewed Mirko, Luca, Andrea, Caterina e Roberta. Here what they said about the composition they choose and why they did this choice:

Mirko: “I chose the Typology A, that is to say the text analysis of a piece of Umberto Eco. I wrote this kind of composition because I found it easier and more suitable to my abilities. I hope I did a good job and took a good mark“.

Luca e Andrea

Luca: “I chose the Typology B, that is to say the technical and scientific short essay. I chose this type of text because during these five years of high school I have always practised in this kind of text and I was sure that I could do a good composition“.

Andrea: “I chose the Typology B, that is to say the artistic and literary short essay about the relationship between father and son in the 20th century. I chose this kind of short essay because I found the title very clear“.

Caterina: “I chose the Typology B too, that is to say the artistic and literary short essay because I found the composition easier than the others and I could express more concepts than in the other compositions“.
