Year 10 English people.

How did you fit this in with your rare vaules, neeky habbox crew and habbo? you lead such a busy life, from reporting on habbos rares to telling forums how many pages you have written! babe do you ever get time for yourself?

I've seriously wasted 2 and a half minutes reading and replying to your hypocritical post.

My english teacher advised me that I shouldn't go over 3000 words for my war poetry, and she said even that was a bit long. Yes, it's mainly your teachers marking and the examiners just double checking to see if they've done ok. I don't see how someone can do 12 pages on a Romeo and Juliet 12 pages, without going completely off task and topic and analysing the whole play rather than the specific essay question asked. You are showing of on a habbo forum, you make it out like you're way too cool for this forum, and keep degrading it and dismissing that your way too cool and trying to show off, then you add 'On habboxforum or habboforum' trying to make it sound like only weird geeks would do this, however, you're not too cool for this forum, you've made 6,000 and something posts and are on it constantly, your on the same level as it. For GCSE an essay over five pages is probably excesseive, of course at university you'll probably be doing essays over five pages. However I'll say it again, you've probably gone off the question, big time, which will degrade you if your 'waffling' on about something different to the essay question. I'm suprised your teacher hasn't asked you to cut it down a fair bit, it's beyond me on how someone can do 12 pages on a romeo and juliet GCSE essay question coursework, without going off topic to the essay question, yes I keep repeating myself about this, however it's the truth. You won't initaly get marked down for writing too much, however it may come that you've written too much, examiner gets slightly bored and you'll end up getting a worse mark. Of course the examiners are being paid, however they have tons to do and may get slightly bored of a 12 page essay. And yes, obviously your teacher isn't stupid, however may not be the best coursework marker out there.

Are you stupid or brain dead?
I haven't slated off the forum I have said I couldn't care less what you or any other member thinks of me. It's so nice of you to write many paragraphs of droppings over my essay but how can you have a go at me for writing 12 pages in a GCSE which is important yet you wrote all of that utter rubbish over me writing 12 pages?

I'd consider anything more than around 5 pages waffle, actually. Are you going to stop me from this? No, of course not, because if it's possible to get a pleasing grade with around a quarter of what you have written, it seems like you're writing too much for the sake of QUANTITY. I assumed you had repeated yourself as 12 pages is just ridiculous. Examiners do mark down work for "waffling" and writing too much, too. This is not just for English, but for MFL aswell (possibly more).

You get an F for incorrectly using 'your' instead of 'you're', too.

thanx,

It's a habbo forum therefore I call it a habbo forum, if you like I could call it forum? I am not showing off as I have said before, I DONT CARE what you think. I was asking a question.

Oh and how sad with that last line trying to correct my spelling, OMG I GOT 'YOUR' WRONG!!!!

Er, explain?
I hardly use this forum, and hardly ever try to look 'cool' I come on like 15mins a week for a few posts. Nothing wrong :S Roboevil, explain next time..

That's all one paragraph by the way, I don't structure my forum posts well, sorry? That took me around five minutes to write so i'm not too bothered, and yes you are slating the forum off and degrading it, no problem with me I couldn't care less, but it's a problem you've got as you shouldn't be degrading it as your on the forum 24/7. It's not utter rubbish, and i'm not having a go at you, well I sort of am but yeh. I'm not a "stupid dead brain" :8

We had a guideline of 1000words, no more than 1250 and thats not cause we are a lower educated school it was nearly impossible to condense it into that amount.

Quality not quantity, the fact is, a good witty essay, not too long, will recieve more marks than a long decent one. Think about it, an examiner is sat there marking paper after paper, a witty essay will chear them up, a long essay will make then sigh.

Our coursework is replaced by and extra war poetry unit, so we haven't done anything on R&J yet. We're watching the film though :P

You've said it in a nutshell :)
The best writers coursework will be very witty and at about 1500 words, not too long, not too short.

ive done 8 full sides of a4. submitted today.
