Do you think it will be harder?
 Apparently we only get 3 essays; do we have the same amount of time?
Also, apperently english nxt year doesn't have to be in your top 4; is this true?

but i dont know about top 4, if it doesnt have to be in top4, would be so not fair for me

I think there won't be much difference in terms of difficulty.

We have three hours, which is the same as this year.

Untrue. Who told you that?

Just a thought: Does it ever occur that ENTER scores are compared over different years. For example, someone gets 99.70 ENTER in 1999, and that is compared to a 99.95 ENTER in 2005? If so, would it really be fair to remove English from top 4?
