1. OPTIONS FOR EPQ
“Is plastic surgery
worth it?”
I am going to do my extended project on whether or not “plastic surgery
is worth it” and I need to consider the best way in which I can present my
research, form an argument and answer the question. This could be either
in the form of an essay or a product with a short essay about the piece
and how it relates and answers the question.

2. 5000 WORD ESSAY
Would be good as I can
use all of the
evidence and create
arguments. This
means that my
arguments can come
up with a conclusion
to the question
which I have posed
as the question for
my extended project
qualification.
I am doing English Language at A level and so feel that an essay would
improve the skills (writing skills) which I need to have for my course.
Because of the course I think that this would make my essay good and
argumentative as well as interesting to read from many points of view.

3. ARTISTIC SCULPTURE
Because my project is
about image I could
make a sculpture
out of clay (for
example) which
would be teamed
with an essay
describing what it is
about. The
sculpture could be a
before and after
face with
enhancements, etc
Doing art at school
should help me to do
well at this kind of
project that I could
do.

4. ART WORK
I believe that having a B grade GCSE in Art and doing design at A level
would benefit if I decide to do this project as they are both very creative
and link well to this idea. However I would struggle to come up with an
answer to the question by doing this piece so perhaps a longer essay
would be needed.
I could do an
image
representing
plastic
surgery. To the
left is a mock
up sketch
which I could
create along
with a 1000-
2000 word
essay

5. I have decided that I am going to do my Extended Project Qualification as
a 5000 word essay as I think that it would be the most practical way to
re-lay my research that I have conducted. Also, I think it would be
difficult to make an artefact or sculpture of „final piece‟ (as I did in art)
that would reflect my title well and so an essay would be the best type of
project that I could do.
