i just did my exam too, i am devastated as I made the same mistake. I did two essays and the empathy question. I could kick myself as I could have easily answered an extract question! My school are going to call the Board, but my head of English said that it's not a big issue, they only put those parameters down to try and get the majority of students to answer a variety of questions. But I am really worried. I am an A* student and if the examiner chooses to ignore one of the answers I am buggered!! What did your school say?
