2 is better because you write less on each = 3 paragraphs, whereas pretty sure i'd run out of time with 1 = 4 paragraphs

anyway it's not like i'm fked over or anything, just reckon i work better with more

This.
Also, I've stopped worrying.
I don't even know any quotes for crucible or my RT but I don't really care, it'll all work out. :)

this is a good attitude. english is the most unpredictable subject in the hsc, so just remain calm and hope you get lucky.

I'm not too worried about any of it, but I guess it's always possible I could get caught out with a creative writing question that I may not be able to relate to one of my ideas. Would highly doubt it though.

+1
Also, how long are creatives expected to be? Mine are hitting around 700 words and I think it's a little short?

its all about the idea for creative rather than length

i'd rather have 1 related than 2 for the essay for some reason

I'm most worried about the form and question for essay and creative...my prepared responses are good enough and I'll have most of them remembered by tomorrow, so hoping for generic questions. If not I'm screwed :S

For essay I'm hoping it says AT LEAST ONE RT, because I have two prepared and it always looks better if the minimum is ONE and you write about TWO. If it just asked for one I'm not sure if my analysis is detailed enough cause I cut it in half for each of my RTs to make it fit in the essay...
