i ended up writing a little more than i expected because of the retard short story, but the space between each line tempted me to write bigger because of increased legibility. with this factor considered i estimate my writing to be 5-6 words per line, that is, big words such as addresses, disparity etc...

on the other hand if we talk in words it was 1200 1300 1200
wtf... i wrote 25 pages, from what you wrote it looks like you said 42 pages.. and my belonging essay was 1650 words, narrative was 1250 and i suspect 100 or so words for my short answer stuff. that doesnt add up to me. one word per line ?

Fuck I wish I could have typed. I would do some sort of bargain, like lose half my time and make it a one hour test (win-win imo).. I can type at least 5 times faster than I write

Q1 6 pages 10/15
Q2 4 pages 9/15
Q3 8 pages 10/15

Anyone who reckons they can get 14/15 for all the Qs has been marked too easily by their teachers.
No one in my year got 14/15 for more then one Q in half yearlys or trials and that includes a girl who won a national writing competition.

Same maybe 10 time because I'm a horrible slow writer seriously I only got 5 pages per sections :'(

If only I was 3 years younger I would snap english in 2012.

You're school is a small sample size in comparison to the rest of the state. You don't know that, and just quietly those who will get a 90+ will more than likely get 14/15 in more than one section.

Fair enough, my teachers are a bit psycho about marking and my year is pretty retard in general.
