GCSE English coursework

Ds is (rather belatedly) completing his coursework. I know it's quality not quantity, but how many words are expected?
It an essay on some of Edgar Allan Poe's work - who needs horror films?!!

Thanks for any help

No word limit - about 3 sides if typed/4 sides handwritten to get in C range - need a 'detailed response'.

Quality rather than quantity. Agree should only be 3-4 sides of A4.
Introduction should be concise; some reference to social/historical context needed; MUST use quotes and reference to the texts and should, of course, respond the focus of the title. Conclusion again should be concise but can include a personal response.

Thanks both!
He's currently just over 4 sides of A4, and it's pretty much complete. Just a case now of seeing how relevant it is to the question??!! That's the bit that I always find hard to judge!
