Should paper 2 be 3 hours? (1 Viewer)

[volition]

I'm happy the way it is, because it favours fast writers such as myself mwahaha

And besides, I'm getting the suspicion that even if it was changed to 3hours, people would still want more time. (one of those, "you always want what you can't have" kind of things)

Why not scrap a module, and keep the paper at 2 hours? Module C is similar enough to Area of Study as it is.......so why not get rid of it, and that way A) the Board of Studies would have to train less markers, and B) get better quality responses that permit more able students to show what they're capable of, when they're not so pushed for time that they have no time to think or formulate quality responses?

The idea that more time to do fewer essays produces better quality responses would appear to be espoused in the entire concept of the English Extension One course and exam paper, by the way.
