I have always used prepared essays for my english exams (trials and half yearlies) and tried to adapt them to the Q and i've done pretty well so far, however I am always hearing how bad it is to prepare essays before hand, and that I should just go into the exam room with knowledge of techniques/ quotes etc. and just sort of make it up on the spot, but I find that really difficult!! Is it really that bad to have a prepared essay? I'd like to know if more people are just winging it on the day, or going into the exam with a prepared essay. let me know. thanks.

i use prepared essays most of the time. Or i have a few good sentences lined up to use in my intro, then i add the question in there somewhere just to get me started, starting is always the hardest for me.


i'm really worried that isnt going to work in the hsc though!
