I finished easy... I even got to add in another value in my transformations that i wasnt going to use because of time restaints, so i was happy, i think my hand was on hypermode coz i finished easily, same essays that im normally struggling to finish... i guess they were questions you didnt have to stop and think about too...

I finished, but ugh, I only wrote 26. Jezzza, you've totally made me feel inadequate :p. I got 8 for powerplay, 8 for harwood and 10 for emma/clueless. And I finished with a grand total of 2 minutes, so even though I intended to go over my stuff, I couldn't bring myself to, so I stared at other people rushing to finish. Made me feel better.

I managed to finish all three modules ;) but it wasn't easy spent half the time wondering what to write -__-" Overall think I did all right for clueless/emma but kind of really stuffed up frontline and king lear *time factor*

Haha... I finished EXACTLY on time! Same as Area of Study. I dotted my final fullstop right when the examiner said "Pens down".

I did 8/8/7 which I'm completely happy with :)

All my teachers tell me that you absolutely MUST have an introdution and a conclusion, simply because after a while markers become lazy, read intros, skim the middle, and read the conclusion.

So yes, all of my essay's had conclusions, and went for about 7 pages each, but I cut short a few of the points I wished to include.

Never mind. I'm happy enough.

I actually had enough time. I forced myself to complete each essay in 35 minutes, then spent 5 minutes checking each one and making sure it was the best I could make it.
