Talk to me about EMAs (please)

I have an EMA due on the 1st of June, it's my 1st and I'm worrying about:

Writing 4000 words-much longer than I have ever done before

Having to submit something to my tutor 2 weeks in advance-what's that all about?

Can I just treat it as a really long TMA?-Or do I need to make it extra specially polished.

Am a bit scared

You have to submit something to your tutor because they have to verify that this is all your own work due to it being the examinable part of your course.

Try to see it as being the opportunity to explore more about your ECA subject rather than trying to fill out a TMA length piece. Its worth all the extra polishing you can muster as its usually worth a huge part of your final mark. You can do this though, you've passed all the TMA's to get here!

I have one due on May 24th!

Am treating it as am a TMA but very conscious I have to bring the whole course together. Have the question written out in big letters above my desk to try and focus my mind. Your tutor cannot say very much about your plan.

Good luck

I have one due on the 25th

Because it's marked by a different tutor-does that mean I can use chunks of stuff that I had in my TMA? Like in an exam?
