[Allan vB]

I've completed the Ext2 and I'd say that if you really have a passion for poetry then go for it! Though, perhaps get your current work checked over by a professional poet before you decide on medium. That should give you an idea of how you're going.

I chose to write two speeches. For our first Ext2 lesson, our teacher pretty much said that we could do "anything but peotry." A few years ago a girl who was sooo committed chose to do poetry and she was pretty much slaughtered by the markers... failing to break the 35 barrier. I feel so sorry for her. I guess the message here is to proceed carefully!
