You've got a good point. I don't think I've waffled on much, just done probably 3-4x what was expected. And I'm feeling a little silly since that doesn't actually do anything for me, and if I hadn't, I'd be done by now
I don't think I want to prune it much, although I'm currently paraphrasing and grammar checking what I've written so far, and am removing some stuff for clarity. It might not do anything for me, but it'd be a double wasted effort if I just deleted it all!
The word limit is fairly low as well to answer 12 questions.
It’s roughly 30 words per question.
Doesn’t really leave room for an intro or conclusion if you’re sticking to that word limit and if that’s needed.
I hope that helps a little bit.
Oh! I should have been a bit clearer, this is just a single question. I'd guess most people would answer the entire question in about half the words I've used to answer a third of it (but there's no limit). Although the question is kind of open-ended, so I certainly wouldn't get in trouble for being as detailed as I am, it's more just I didn't have to
Oohh ok. Now I understand how it’s set out!
AIATSIS protocols, pick one. Try to describe it in less time than drinking a coke.
Bonus points cite anything by Tui Raven
I'm basically done now. The social issues category became a bit of a rabbit hole, but politics and economics are simpler, or at least, simpler to describe
Cool. But do remember that name.
