It is expected to write 1000 word essays 40 mins. What about the people with slow handwriting? How are they suppose to fit in what they know? There's no stopping to think or you won't finish. This is why I hate english...

you dont necessarily have to write 1000 words, one guy in my school wrote a 600 word essay and got 18 out of 20. Focus on your content

You're only complaining now about how there's a time limit on exam writings? Where the hell were you for the past 11 years that it happened?

Try Modern History, much more "physical" in my opinion.

english has never been a test of knowledge, test of bsing
Very true.
