Umm probably around 2-3 pages depending on your handwriting size etc. It's all about the quality of what you write, not quantity. You wont recieve marks for rambling! :smile:

I think 600 words is about a side of A4 :smile:

In the exams, I have never been able to write more than a side and a half for a 25 mark question, not because I don't know what to write, but because my handwriting is incredibly tiny. For an average size of handwriting, I would say 2 pages.

I think 600 words could be as much as 2 pages if you have large handwriting, but generally is just over a page.

Well, this is an interesting story actually.

I got 32/100, but I only wrote 3 paragraphs, one for each question, and walked out when I was allowed to. The reason being is that the worst combination of questions came up, and knew I wasn't going to get anything done.

However, in EVERY mock I did before hand, I got "A", and in each of them wrote only about 1 and a half sides.
