What order did you attempt the sections?

I did 1/2 of section I, then went onto section III, then did section II, and then finished section I.

Finished with about 2 mintues to spare.

I do them in order. Section I gets me flowing with techniques etc, Section II is just manipulating a pre-prepared story so it's like a break, Section III is manipulating a pre-prepared essay to a question a bit harder and longer to write.

1 3 2

i carved through section 1, did it in 25 mins, giving me lots of time for the essay (12 pages) and then half an hour to regurgitate my story.

Did them in order. Spent exactly 40 minutes on each section and finished everything. It was rather tight I have to admit, but I got through :)

I did section II first because i generally find it easier, then III to get the hard bit out of the way and then I which i ran out of time for halfway through (e). oh well, at least it's over now, only 2 more hours left of english ever!

II in 25 minutes, III in 50 minutes, I in 45 minutes.

section I always takes longer than it should - I'm so slow getting my ideas on the paper and i write like twice what is necessary. Section II makes the whole exam ok :)
