Don't over-elaborate on it. Keep it as short as possible (1.5 - 2 pages). I wrote 3.5 pages in my mocks which caused me to run out of time to finish my essay.

I wrote four pages in the mocks. A good tip is for every five marks, write a paragraph!

You must be talking about the essay and not the QB right?

Ahh sorry I read the previous posts wrong. I was talking about QA. QB should be around 2 - 3.5 pages.

For Home Ec, is Value Added Food the same as Functional Food? Soo confused

I agree. I don't get why Eoin Jackson always has to have cringey moments in his video.Why can't he just tell us his predictions without making it feel like we're watching a dirty scene in a film with our parents.
