I just want to sleep right now, my eyes are literally burning. Alas, I cannot, for I must complete an entire speech on Auden, and memorise the entirety of paper 2's quotes

Just to chip in my two cents, i did creative first (took me 30 mins), essay second (40 mins) and short response last using whatever remaining time i had.
It worked really well for me since i had both essay and creative prepared and the stimuli were pretty generic so not much brain power needed.
I did require more time for short response since i kinda had to skim through the texts and try to answer the questions as detailed and insightful as possible. But it was worth, got 15/15
At the end of the day, its up to you and how confident you are with each section

Do you guys have any suggestions on creating a generic enough creative? I've created two but found that I had trouble moulding it into the stimulus, even for the trials.

Or even, any samples for great generics.

Good luck

Thank you, I'm going to need it. </3

Make the plot focus on the experience, and not on details. Make the details up during the exam to fit the stimulus.

For example, a crime story wouldn't specify "the crime" when you prepare it, just the experience of those who went through it.
