It's QUALITY not QUANTITY, also it depends on your handwriting aim for about 800-1200 words per response and treat your composition the same as the essay as they are WORTH THE SAME AMOUNT!

As part of the marking criteria is about following the conventions of your form (aka story, speech etc) for a story a title is part of that, so you definitely wont be getting 15/15 unless your teacher marks easy.

Wtf. It is not mandatory to have a title for a creative writing. -_- Go quote from a teacher saying that it is MANDATORY not a suggestion. Btw I've asked this with one of my teachers who's a senior marker and a kid in our school who got 99.95 and they both say a title isn't needed so go figure o_O

Actually he did 4u english. Just saying. Oh ops forgot to add. He only did 10 units (he isn't one of the 4u 2u english physics and chem combo people if you were thinking that).

Today's exam was alright. Only thing that made me go wtf was that the head of english told the whole grade to prepare TWO related texts for belonging/modc, and they ended up asking for ONE today. I made up a whole paragraph on the spot, which i've never done before. D:
