How many pages?

Just wondering, how many exam booklet pages should a good essay have?
I have medium-sized writing.
Especially language analysis, cause I have trouble deciding when to stop writing :S

I would  advise against writing too much for LA, as you could easily fall into the danger of summarising.

So for section 3 would 3 pages be enough? Or is that too short?

That also will obviously depend on your font size and spacing...

I write about 800 - 1000 words, and for me that's about three pages on a VCAA booklet or two pages on lined paper.

Quality > Quantity I reckon. Don't worry too much about the pages (unless you only have like half a page done)
