Does anyone have a scanned blank page (lined) from the BOS booklets used in the HSC exams?

look at the exemplars...and work out the dimensions from there and make one from word.

There are plenty of (spare) official booklets at school.

well not longer than finding a BLANK BOS booklet amidst the rubble of ones room, and then scanning it and posting it up on here (which would b a slow process if one has dial up)....

hey, can u tell us the gap b/w each line and the length of each line? (like in cm)....then we can make one using word.

Quality over quantity.

They can go through 2-3 writing booklets and might end up awarding 0 (hyperbole)

yeah, thats what i thought...but i c ppl around here telling us to write bigger etc. in order to make it look like we've written a lot.

That might work

I have large writing (not excessively large).

Usually go through a couple of booklets, so it seems like a lot. (when condensed it'll be a 'normal' essay length )

if u had smaller writing, u prolly wouldn't have said that.

If someone manages to make one in word can they upload the word file here? I tried but have got no idea how to do it myself! Thnx

Its best to write big and atleast fill up one booklet.

Examiners get put off it its only a couple of pages long, even if it is small writing. Its easier for them to mark if writing is large also.

Better to keep the examiners happy I say
