So my essays for SOR in the exams are about 600-700 words for the last two sections but I'm worried that they are too short :/ am I just being OCD about it or should I aim for longer responses to be able to better equip myself for the 20/20???

Thanks!

I'd aim for longer responses. Generally, the rule of thumb with full essay questions in the HSC is about 1,000 words. Obviously, it's quality over quantity, but with only 600-700 words, you arent including enough to produce a quality essay. The minimum you should be aiming for is about 800 words at least.
