Yeah I did 3 or 4 and got an A. To be honest if you write too much the examiner gets bored. At A Level you have word limits and if you get into the habit of writing lots it's really hard to get out of that and you just make the whole situation a pile of crap for yourself!
To be honest 12 pages is a foolish, it doesn't make you look good and if it takes that many pages to get a good grade you may as well give up now - as you don't stand a chance in the exam. If you can still get a good grade with a few pages, then why the hell write 12?!

No it isn't, only took me a few days to do (1st draft)

To include all the points I had to do 12 pages, I would struggle to fit it all into 2 pages.

For all the points I had to write about in the exam I had to do 12 pages, I didn't write 12 pages for the hell of it :rolleyes:

Last year, (because it changes I think) we did Great Expectations. A boy in my year (11) that's doing his A level maths atm, lol did 18 pages in size 12 font, lol.
Madness.
I got an A on that though . I think I did about 7.

How many pages have you done on your Romeo and Juliet essays so far?

Ive done 12 A4 Pages on my first draft and i'm just tweaking a few bits now.

You?

You've got to have gone well over and you will probably be marked down for it. Im in Year 12 now and we are only allowed a maximum of 2200, and a minimum of 1800 [Mine was 1970]

When I did it in Year 10 I think I did about 5 pages.

No, there is no limit to how much you have to do. However she did state you have to do at least 4 pages.
