Apparantly, but I didnt because they can just look at the front.
but if pages get torn out accidentally, then get mixed up... well, yeah, i don't envy you.

S1 - 5 and a half pages
S2 - 7 pages
S3 - 11 pages

In regards to whether the markers take into account anything that isn't written on the lines, I read an examplar response and there was an arrow pointing to another blank page where there was more writing, so I think they do mark it.

Ok want to clear this up

essay= 1400 words
creative= 1400 word

(for those who want to know how much i wrote)

n i dont understand whats the big deal so what if i wrote that much

i know its quality and not quantity

i just practiced speed writing and knew my essay

i havent reported any1 mate. im not doing aythig just responding to ure claims. if ppl dont like wat u r saying thats not my fault is it. everyones entitled to their own opinion. im just saying that despite wat u say i think it is very hard to believe that ppl are writing up to 1400 if not more words in like 40 minutes
clesalry if u are typing then fine, but like in the circumstances as i said b4 at that rate or like 34 pages, u are loking at 3.5 mins per page. that is unrealistic, bu hey thats just my opinion

Guys I shouldn't have to just delete 43 posts of utter crap. If you don't have anything decent to post don't post.

Anyone trolling or posting elitist/offtopic crap will be banned.

Theres someone here who has multiple accounts, and disregarding people inappropriately. They should be banned.

im fully prepared to have the piss taken, after the following statement.
section I- one booklet = 2 1/2 pages
section II- one booklet = 6 pages
section III- one booklet = 8 pages

i am from a small country town. therefore university or money isnt everything to us. I don't think i tanked in section one nor did i kick ass but i was always taught to answer according to mark amount. eg 1 mark= 1 or 2 sentences (get straight to the point). As the marks increase so does the amount but still remaining to get straight to the point. My english teacher is a marker so her advice must be accurate..
