h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Following some recently quite bad results in my politics work, I began to ponder if people respond more or less favourably to work which is laid out differently...
A little test proved this theory to some extent: I recieved a bad mark from my teacher for an essay on the House of Lords Reforms, which I had tried to fit onto as few pages as possible to save my diminishing paper supplies. When asked to redo the work I merely returned the text to a normal size and increased the margins so that the text took up more pages. I returned the same essay but looking twice as long and recieved a mark two grades higher... hmmm...
