How many words would we be expected to write in the extended response?

Anyone freaking out yet? :(

I usually write around 150 words for the 6 markers.

Well, I started hyperventilating when they told us to be quiet when leaving our year 11 exams because there was a 3/4 one upstairs, I realised that would be me in 24 hours. Almost threw up when the email with our seating plan came through. No, not freaking out, not really.

There's no word limit, but in keeping with the counterintuitive nature of Glopol marking, bigger is better (or, at least, safer). To be assured of full marking a question, you will have to right beyond the lines provided, so make use of the 'extra space' section.
According to MS word, I usually write about 200 words for anything north of 6 marks that isn't an essay.
Freaking out? In an unprecedented move, my body has decided that I am more stressed out over global than I was over lit. I can only guess it's because this is my final chance to do well in VCE, but honestly, I'm fucking over it already. So annoyed with this subject right now and it's stupid, stupid assessment.
