Section I - 3 pages (not understanding how the hell anyone got more than that unless they have super big writing... guess I'm screwed for that one :S)
Section II - 5 pages
Section III - 7 pages

I was happy with all of that until I came on here and realised everyone else wrote a tonne more...

Section I - 5 pages
Section II - 7 pages and a few lines
Section III - 6 pages and a few lines

Really wanted to hit eight for the essay, but unfortunately I had essentially run out of things to talk about considering the question limited what I could have written.

Suppose so - the issue is at my school that there is a big range in the harshness of the marking, and none of us have any idea how that compares to any other schools. Hopefully my content was alright to make up for the lack of quality :/

My school was pretty harsh with the marking the trials as well I think... at least I think so. Or at some point between the school certificate and now I manage to drop from getting 90+ to barely passing.

Have you guys ever heard 'quality not quantity'? It doesnt matter how much you write. It's what you write about.

Yes and it's largely true, but there is no possible way that you could fit a 'quality' response on 1 page particularly on the essay section.

Thank you for not having a go at me.

My point in saying what i said was people saying 'i wrote 6 pages, im screwed' is ridculous. I wrote 3, 3, 3 and i'm not stressing or panicing.
