Instead I ended up going 1, 3, 2.

I did my student numbers at the end. I don't mind staying back after the exam a few mins, and it's allowed to why waste time? lol.

And I always make sure to equally divide my time. They're all worth the same marks after all.

Our supervisors are mean and won't let us write anything after pens down. I easily wasted a good 10mins writing English Paper 1, my student number, the centre number, the date, the section and the question on my booklets, PLUS student & centre number on every page.

They should print the booklets with your information on them, although I know this isn't realistic -.-

Well, it was pretty obvious if you were writing your student number or adding to your responses. Lol.

Wow that sucks. Our supervisors let us write ours at beginning when they were handing the question booklets out. Wrote it all while the supervisor was talking :)

3, 2, 1: In terms of which ones I want to remember the most to do well in (beginning) and which ones I can bullshit the best in (so those are more towards the end). Same for Friday, whichever is most prepared I'll do first get it out of the way, then whatever is next, some say to do the least prepared one first but it comes to me as I write my other ones so its all good :)

Am i the only one who went 1,2,3.
I wasted 40 mins on freaking short answers cant believe it.
So needed to slam creative in 20 mins. Which i did, all 750 words of it.
Then gave me time to do my essay and extend it to account for the loss of a related text.
Then added one last point to the 5 marker.
2 hours done.

I've always found it weird not to do 1 first...You get 10 minutes to read the texts...

I know! Maybe they've heard things about our school being shady. Haaa.

:mad1: They should at least have the same rules for everyone. The only thing we're allowed to fill out before the exam is the blue form - they expect us to have the number of booklets used etc also filled out on the blue form by pens down.

On topic: I did 1, 2, 3 - in order of worst to best preference :D
