At 500 words per page I write 4 pages during the exam with time to spare. My handwriting is perfectly legible.
I plan to write 1500 words or less in the exam.

You have 40 minutes exactly per section of the paper. Make sure you can finish your essay in ~35 minutes to account for time used to plan the essay.

9-11 pages of those new shitty booklets. It's not about quantity but, it's about quality ;)

For a fully memorised response word for word probs around 1350. In an actual exam though, my essays tend to be between 1100-1200 words
