    Re: Handwriting

    I dunno, I write my essays on the spot and so, I gotta think a lot but I still write at an easy and steady pace - getting around 850-900 words per essay.

    Yeah, I just remember some quotes, the key themes and already have a solid understanding of the text then just do the essay.

    I've found that during my practice essays, I've averaged around 900-1000 words - guess my hand has just got used to the strain :P

    Nerd, what are you aiming for ATAR wise?

    And are your 700 words actually quality though?

    That's concerning.

    Was this down to lack of content?

    :/

    Well do you know your content well? The only way you can really improve is just make it the highest quality possible as someone mentioned before :/

    Keep trying bro, you never know, there may be a break through. English is also integral to your ATAR but I guess it's importance depends on your aims.

    It really is, I gave up about 5 days ago because I was only getting down 850 words in 40 mins. And then I started again (last 5 days, just english, feeling a quite positive about it now - except creative)

    so keep trying !

    Re: Handwriting

    write with ink pens, they go faster with less friction.
    And tie some weights on the end of the pen and write with it. I know it got weights, but in the exam, take them off and you'll find that you'll go faster (esp. with the ink pen)

    Dw, mine are like scribbles, it's like 'You either read it, or attempt to read it'
    but still legible...i think...
