i dont think word count has anything to do with simplicity or complexity lmao, you could be really simple in 3 booklets or bust out some complicated shit in only 1
So you're telling me 600 words (1 booklet) will suffice?

I think quantity reflects depth and knowledge sometimes.

3 for all mods
I hate how the lady didn't want to give me when I was writing on my current one and she only gave me one when I showed her that I filled up everything -.-
That's bad luck :(
In reading time I asked straight up for 3 more booklets because I knew I would need it (and she gave it to me)

Nah 600 words can't get full marks :(
depends on what you wrote, if your 4 booklets is rubbish and someones 4 pages is better than that, then they will get the better mark.

Quantity means you can talk about more, but doesn't mean you
(a) will answer the question better
(b) and if you talk about rubbish it won't be much better

I used 2 completely for all of them, then one page of a third for A and B and two pages for C. But I didn't memorise or know what the hell I was doing in the exam so I took up a full page on each of the modules to plan.

lol i completely agree with you m8, my reply was to someone who tried to justify their short essay with the simplicity over complexity argument. I had 3 booklets each, i'm definitely one for quantity haha
