With the piece of creative writing in the Medway Test, is it just 1 'topic' or a there a number of choices?

I have just read a thread on the Kent forum and it seems they have a choice.

Any info appreciated from those who have been there before!

Thanks

The last 2 years there was no choice.
2007 - Continuing a story (desert island type thing I think).
2008 - An imaginary retelling of an event in the present tense.

Thanks SuperMonkey.

I am just adding to my stress that we haven't practised enough variety; diary, play script, creative writing, letters - I need to tell myself that all will be ok in the end!!

There is definitely no choice of writing in the Medway test. You are given a title or paragraph to finish or a task and you must do what is set. All children have the same.
