how many pages do they expect you to write in 40 minutes? (3 Viewers)

[Memi]

I write about 6 pages and my teachers complain that it's not enough (Also it's not very legible >_<)

 

[powlmao]

My handwriting is crap but i manage about 6 pages.

For Economics I had two extended responses (30mins each) wrote 8 pages total.

Your teachers are douches. Quality > Quantity anyday. You get guys who write 4 pages beating others who write like 5-6.

I find this was of writing much faster lol.. (it's just my nature also).

...... here this is one of the pages from my Ancient essay from trials. I wrote about 17 pages in 45mins which is nothing to be proud of since its 3-4 words a line.. As you can see nothing to be impressed about, its just colossal sized writing haha.. as quantity does not get you top marks.. although i did get 24/25 hehe ..

is this the line spacing for the real HSC booklets? At my school we had to do all the trials on our own notepad paper which has tiny lines compared to those things.

same (as you can see my writing is terrible)^^ that is one of the reasons why i write so big+time is another significant factor. The whole HSIE department at my school always talks about my writing hahaa (not in a good way).

yes i think this is similar to the actual hsc paper.

Haha, i bet it isn't as bad as some of the writing i've seen. Literally looks like scribble. I feel sorry for the teacher marking that...almost . Time is a bitch as well.

but then I have no idea whether I've written enough! Is there somewhere we can get the template for the HSC booklets so I can figure out how many pages I have to write?????

 

[plshelp]

My teacher says just get to the staple and your fine. So a standard hsc bookle is 8 pages therefore write 4/5 ish.

 

[smartalec]

YOUR WRITING IS MASSIVE! I went and counted how many words on average I fit in a line and it was around 8-10. lol.

@ go to google and type in hsc exemplar answers and you'll go to this standards package page.. they should have some hsc booklets there ...

they use different booklets now. I was a scribe last year and they are a lot smaller than the ones on the standards thing.
