Pah, thanks for the offer but I got that :P I'll let others ask away.

I'm late, but I'm getting worried now. I know, I know, quality over quantity, but mine was certainly not 29 pages like some others! I've no idea how long it was.

Paper 2...was very unenjoyable, I really didn't like the way the questions were phrased.

Paper 1 was a different story altogether, my Reading was alright, my Functional Writing and Media Studies great, and my Personal writing was amazing, judging by how much I enjoyed it.

I was ecstatic when I saw what Books Mean To Me because I've probably read more books than my entire class combined! :P So I wrote a very examiner-friendly thing about how I grew up with books, how I now blog about them, and how i'll be an author when I'm older, saying 'Books are my past, my present and my future. A life, in words.' I also included a Stephen King quote about writing

That's the one subject I really really really want an A in.

It could be argued big long answers show an inability to be concise and to the point.

Answering the question asked is far more important than how many pages long an answer is.

Well done! Don't mind about writing excessively, as long as you feel that you have answered your question.

You're essay sounds really good! I can see that it really is a "personal" essay, not just some bullcr*p made up on the spot! I hope the examiner picks up on that. I loved the bit about past, present and future, sounds terrific.

Good luck, I'm sure you did well.

Looking over this thread after most of us forgot about this exam made me realize how I wrote less than a lot of people... but in fairness my writing is small and I used the word acquiesce once in my essay so it'll be grand. B would be good considering I have done little study

I didnt do so well on this test.I got really sick just on the day of the test and was feeling ill half way through paper 2...I also ran out of time because of this and my answers were way too short for paper 2....I really screwed up on that test

I only used the 12 pages provided and I wrote full lenght answers(talking about paper 1) eg.3 paragraphs for 15 marks..your personal writing sounds great. Ive also probably read more books than my entire class combined but I had already prepared an essay for the test that was quite adaptable so I did that..I did history repeating itself and just wrote my story adding an ending that makes you realise that the event is a never ending cycle and history will repeat itself once again...hope the examiner wont find problems with that because I liked my story. :P
