How many pages for an exam

Ok i have my first exams coming up soon, well into my revision but i am starting to panic on how many pages are expected for the two questions i have to answer because i fear i will forget all my notes and reading and break down into tears.

i have heard of some people 2 pages others 4 or 5 can anyone tell me from experience how many pages you did.
Don't aim for pages. Aim to write a good essay which has all the relevant points needed and answers the question well..

Remember quality > quantity
If you only manage to write 1 page you should be worried lol ..

Also depends how much its worth
It would help if you could say how long your exam is and how many questions you have to answer. In my recent exam, I wrote 2 pages per question and had half an hour on each question (2 in a one hour exam). I have average size handwriting and write a bit slower than most. I was also concentrating on writing legibly! Read as much as possible and relax for the couple of hours before the exam. Looking at past papers also helps. :smile:
