How many pages for paper 2? (Normal a4 pages, not bos pages)

 

[Rafy]

i'm personally aiming for 5-6 A4 pages.... i.e at LEAST one entire BOS booklet

 

[MuffinMan]

5 to 6 a4 pages = 2 bos booklets :-/

Quality

Quality not Quantity. If you can write a good response and cover everthing in one booklet then your not going to loose marks becuase someone else worte an equally as good essay in 2 booklets, in fact if you can get it out in a smaller amount of space without throwing crap in there then that is great.

Rafy, thats alot...
my essays are around 2 pages typed, but thats all I can do in an exam
but really, 2 pages typed would be how much in a booklet?

 

[Rafy]

yeh, i can do about 2.5 typed A4 pages in 40 minutes.

The figure of 5-6 A4 written pages is based of my Trials where the lines where the normal 8mm apart...

It depends on the essay, but I generally have 4-5 paragraphed pages of A4 writing which will work out to be roughly one BOS book and possibly a second. But I'm not fussed about how many BOS booklets it is. Like hollybox said, quality not quantity.

Aim for about 4 a4 pages per essay really.... the quantity of it is so dodgy though, as something that appears to be bigger becuase of big handwriting may actually be smaller than the one with smaller handwriting.
