Yeah I ran out on the last two lines of my poem..
Quickly rushed it after the person said pens down
Something like

"Live together and they'll be fine,
Don't forget to go and dine"

..The fuck lol

yerrhh... i ran out of time in the 5 mark question... wrote a load of crap basically. I think it was cos at the start of the exam i was too concerned with having neat handwriting, that sure changed by the time i got to the 5 mark question.

I ran out of time, though I'm not surprised, as I've never completed an Area of Study exam before, ever (not even in year 11).

I ALWAYS seem to finish right on pens down in English... Both papers... Most other essay-based papers as well...

Running out of time during the short answers so my final answer was very, er, dodgy, yes. Spent way too much time on the essay.

One of my friends didn't even do that last question and left her creative writing unfinished :/ So I guess a lot of people had time difficulties.

arrgh i hate time management :p
i spent -just- over the 40 min mark on comp;
close to an hour on my creative :(
annnd less time than i wish i had on my essay. twas nice of them to cut out the need for one of my related's, though :]
gave me a bit more time..

one kid in my year (adv.) got to his creative, wrote the quote about soil or whatever it was, then in the line below wrote something along the lines of:
"i'm going to spend the next hour cringing"
*shakes head*
eek!

No you weren't. it was a driving idea. Your text had to relate to the quote in some way.
