wait for mod c, how cooked would I be if i end up writing like a 500-600 piece even if its a 20 marker. Currently my mod c setup is banking on the fact that we get the creative piece and reflection. Do markers tend to get mad if u dont 'extend' your piece if the question is a sole 20 marker for creative? I just cba rn to do that cause I care more about the essays.
You could lose a few marks, for me atleast I did, but it depends how good your actual piece. like if you can achieve all the marking criteria that the markers look for and form an engaging piece, it can make up for the marks you lose cos ur writing is short, if not your kinda cooked. Surely you can makeup 200 words on the spot using the stimulus they give you?

wait what if you're doing a poem, when poems are generally shorter than other types of creatives???
