<p>Im just taking a practice essay from the CB and on the real test Im wondering what line of the paper do you stop writing on?</p>
<p>Like, you write in a big rectangle, but do you go to the very bottom so that like your “g’s” might dip out of the rectangle? Or do you stop at that line above it? </p>
<p>Okay so do you use up 24 lines or 25?</p>
<p>I left about 5-6 lines blank on my essay, but still got a very satisfactory score. </p>
<p>There are plenty of essays with several lines left blank that earn two-digit scores, and there are plenty of essays that use up every single line but earn 6 or 7’s. Although the length can play a role in the scoring, I think what REALLY matters is the content of the essay.</p>
<p>That’s not what he asked. He asked on which line you’re supposed to stop on once you reach the end of a page and are ready for the next page.</p>
<p>The answer is simple. Look at the essay section. Note how the lines that your write on do not touch the side of the rectangle. The last line, however, does because it’s part of the rectangle. DO NOT write on this. g’s and stuff will get cut off. Graders ONLY SEE WHAT’S INSIDE THE BOX. So use the last line (that doesn’t touch the sides of the rectangle) and that’s it.</p>
<p>oh, oops - sorry, I misunderstood the question</p>
<p>yea, don’t right on the very last line that’s a part of the rectangle. There’s enough space for more writing, but that’s not what it’s there for.</p>
<p>I took up all the space. got 11/12</p>
