Yeah it would be, to give an idea of the page size.

2 typed pages at font 12 approx = 10 pages of the Booklet.

my writing is huge, and overly spaced, even compared to the HUGE lines in the BoS booklets. so i really dont get that much into one book, it annoys me.

i hate my writing

The only time I skip a line is between paragraphs. Its confusing when people to indent a handwritten response.

you should leave a line between paragraphs as it makes your paragraphs look like separate entities and therefore you're more likely to get the marks for structure

why the hell does that suck for maths? its better to work on lined paper, plus the lines are really lightly drawn you can barely see them.

The problem is that the gaps between lines are too big, meaning you have to keep flipping back over pages to see your previous working, etc.

Pain in the bum.

the size of a booklet page is roughly half an A4 page.
so 10 pages in a booklet = 5 A4 pages
:/

Its full a4 size, where you can ONLY use the lined side of the pages (8 lined pages).

And i just measured the size of the lines, they are a perfect 1cm apart, while normal lined books are 8mm

I'm sure they would... and I'm sure they'd give us more paper...

I probably won't... still writing 7-8minutes per A4 lined page... I'll write bigger...

you don't run out of paper, you ask for a new booklet and submit the booklets you used for each question together

just look at every technique possible and provide lots of examples. don't feel pressured to fill more than one booklet though, its quality not quantity
