    2 pages is enough if you have normal handwriting, altho i'll be honest and say that i somehow managed to write 3 and a bit, probs cos I was writing huge, like 5-7 words a line max they usually expect 1.5-2, bare minimum of 1 page Yeah um if you named and explained your techniques you might get...

    Yeah, I dunno, for me it was more like, can I actually get 2 marks for what I said or is it only 1. So I wrote more on it than usual. Every mark counts.

    Who's going all night?

    Dw, I slept ~2 hours. Repeat of trials (I dunno how I let myself fall into this trap again). Felt like shit when I woke up but felt amazing by 9, adrenaline rush I suppose. Totally worth it. Not doing this for Maths though.

    tbh, they probably will since there's a subtle thought "oh this essay on the Crucible actually TALKS about place!" lol.

    no i did crucible as well there was stuff in there you could do metaphorical place, or you could do literally; isolated location of Salem + woods, location of Proctor's house on the outskirts = deliberate choice not to belong, location of Putnam's in the meeting-house in the heart of the town =...
