    AQA English Lang B A2 Resit - Monday 11
    Hi guys
    Anyone else resetting this?
    Also, does anyone have any notes of children's literacy they wouldn't mind putting up?

    Thanks

    I've got this exam tomorrow but I'm not resitting.
    I'm pretty scared though... really don't want to run out of time! I've never actually practiced doing one of these exams in 2h30 because we never got around to it in class... oh well, hopefully it'll be OK!

    For the language acquisition — reading section, I have some basic notes... might be of some help but you might not even see this before tomorrow! Oh well!
