Pompeii and Herculaneum 10 mark response

(1/1)

mitchello:
Hey, I was wondering what the length of our answer should be in the 10 mark question for P + H. I know the obvious answer would be 'the space provided', but my teacher has recommended using 2.5 - 3 pages for a band 6 response in this section (being marked by him, I followed the instruction). In the actual HSC I'd like to crop it down to a more standard size (still with the potential of a band 6), due to time constraints. I was wondering what you guys consider the optimal length for this section of the exam. Thanks!

Hi there! Sorry for the late reply. For me, my responses ranged from around 2-2.5 pages :) However admittedly I did have quite small handwriting, so I'd probably say 2.5 would be the way to go!
