I got B6 with about 1100-1300 per essay, you should be fine with 1000 tbh. Its quality not quantity though, markers hate waffle!

Depends on your handwriting. Around 900-1200 but can't know for sure. General rule of thumb is at the very least least 1 booklet (4 pages) per essay. Less than that is too short and even if your arguments are sound, the markers may be disinclined to give you a high mark
