3. Memorise essays or nah?
4. How many words was your essays roughly?

FINAL QUESTION OMG!
1. I tried my best to go to bed at 9-10pm, though I often had trouble sleeping before exams (4 hours of sleep before HSC Modern hallah). However I have a family history of being just terrible at sleeping, so I've kinda grown used to running on very little fuel ahaha.
2. Paper 1 --> Creative, Essay, Comprehension. I did my creative first because I had that word for word memorised (just little bits to adapt in terms of integrating the stimulus). Paper 2 (depended on which question I was most comfortable, but typically, and what I did in the HSC) --> Module C, Module A, Module B.
3. For english - yeah. For history - HELL nah.
4. For all my subjects it ranged from 1000-1300 :) (usually around the 1100 mark I think). But that was usually after heavily cutting down, as I was notorious for going wayyy over the limit in assessments (I once handed in a 6000 word draft for my 2500 word history extension major work ahaha).
