I don't know if they were marked as such, but AFAIR most of our term essays weren't (we got comments rather than grades) so I suspect not. I certainly didn't find out the mark if they were.
Bear in mind that on the Gen. Lit. paper (as for any of the mods/schools essay papers) there's a choice of about 50 essay questions, of which you choose 3, and many of them don't even specify which author(s) you can write about in response to the question, so people's answers will be wildly different. To be honest I don't know how they ever mark them at all...! :-}
