I voted for "half an hour" because that is the closest option that you gave. Half an hour would have been better than nothing but another hour was what I really needed:).

mate....u dont need another hour, unless you are a really slow writer. THey dont want u to talk about everything, jsut the key points..

personally an extra five mins would be good....had an injury in my hand, that started to hurt half way though - had to rest it...

Probably about 10mins or so
I spent too long on powerplay which meant that the other 2 sections were a little dodgy...

I am quite a slow writer and I didn't get to write all the main points down:(. Plus, the more you write, the more marks you are going to get, as long as you keep your response relevant:).

I stick to the time limits religiously. I don't think more time is necessary cos everyone is in the same boat timewise so its all relative.

It sucks coz you need 30 extra minutes to do all your information (I had to chop about a third off every essay), but after the choppage I needed about 2 more minutes for one more line and a conclusion...

yes and no......
markers and teachers all mention that length is a key element to a succesful response. Obviously quality is important aswell, but i agree with others, that 10 mins more would have been great just to finalise third response

Not everyone is in the same boat because some people can physically write faster than others:(.

Another 20 minutes for each module would have been heaven. I got everything I needed to say out, but it would have been nice to be able to plan it better, and spend time polishing it off a bit.
