In my class we are taught to structure our poetry comparisons with the annogram 'TEWAC'.
Technique/terminology
Evidence
Words from the question
Analysis (speculate if you can)
Comparison
I usually write 6 of these paragraphs altogether, an introduction, a paragraph about the structure of the poem and a brief conclusion.
If you use this sort structure and know the poems you are writing about then I'm sure you'll be fine! Good luck, I bet you'll do better then you think! 😊

I always say what the poem is about and write a brief analysis of the title, it doesn't have to be much, i think it's just to show the examiner that you understand the poem as a whole 😊

If you can then do, but if not then I don't think it matters as long as you answer the question through analysing the language somehow! It's a really hard exam so just try your best!
you will fail
lol
