It is fine . Maybe even better than expository. Don't worry

was the requirement expository?

I clearly remember someone saying it was creative (and i believed this due to the pictures - like the Melbourne high test). I couldnt find it anywhere on the GAT it was meant to be expos, so i agreed with creative.

They didn't say it should be expository. I did a speech. Last year i just rearranged the info and didnt do well

Yeahp, it doesn't have to be expository. I did creative in the form of a magazine article. Wrote it as a Russian Grandmaster. Just have to make sure that it doesn't become persuasive, you're presenting the facts not an argument. Don't worry about it... it's over now!

I wrote a speech. There was no requirement for the form. I have friends who have written their first piece as speeches, expository essays and even as a King chess piece telling the pawns pieces (his children) the history of their race (the game itself.)

Wow, that last one sounds fantastic, now I'm kicking myself for not thinking of that. Smart friends you have  ;)
