The exam had finished and I was going through adding my student number etc... and realised I'd only done 4 pages for Section 2 (the narrative)... and those had a fair few spaces between each small paragraph.

Do you think 4 pages would get an OK mark?

I did 3, because I left it with only 10 minutes to go. :/ But, I did well and did 5 pages for Q1 and 9 pages for Q3, so hopefully I can do well there and reduce the poor mark I'll no doubt get for Q2.

I only did 2 because i left it last and I only had 15minutes to write it :'(

Wasn't much time so i wrote about a kid who had to go take a dump during the exam, but after he poops sees there is no toilet paper so has to make a detour on the way back to the examination hall to another toilet to wipe his as. All his time is wasted and he cant finish the exam etc.

lol not going to get superb marks for s2... oh well at least i did well in the other 2 :p

I wrote 5.5 which was surprising, although I left a lot of white space on the first page where I did some funky text thing for emphasis...

pre-made story killed it. 7pages. did it in 20min.

Stragely though, i still ran out of time at the end and probably got 0 for Section 1 f).

The question was "Your local community is publishing a collection of youny peoples imaginative writing" so does that mean the story had to be aimed at the youth? or is that just who is writing it, because mine was not aimed at that audience.
