OMG!! the speaking task was one of a couple that i got 100% on, that would have been so awesome if mine was worth 30%!!!

Sorry l made a mistake - mine was worth 15% YES!!!!!!

The task was : Write an imaginative, modern retelling of the events of The Pardoner's Tale, of 700-1000 words.

Kitten: Whats the most amount of words you've written for an assessment?

One of our assessments we had to write 1500 words but when your in an exam condition, they usually dont state word limits unless its a specific form.

The task was : Write an imaginative, modern retelling of the events of The Pardoner's Tale, of 700-1000 words.

That sounds alright, you just gotta make sure your not cliched.

Also l don't know what the fuss is about with Advanced being too hard. I find it not hard at all. I mean, l'm not getting 100% but l'm not failing either. My average (l think) would be about 65-75%

as in predictable, teachers tend to hate the usual teenage angst stories etc. so something original

And look at the text from a different perspective or "outside the square". I also try to use good grammer and "big" words :p
