Do u think they ever repeat the same ones as the years before? Looking through past papers it looks like they never seem to repeat?! Which means it's easier to predict I guess..

the only poems that haven't come up in all the past papers are: coy mistress, brothers and paris, but poems can be repeated (eg Farmer's bride, nettles, manhunt and sonnet 43) so there is no way of knowing really. It's highly unlikely to be manhunt or sister maude however, because they don't do the same poems two years in a row.

what themes do you think will come up??

Aqa can use foundation poems for higher. Other than that, they have never repeated poems. The Right Word has never come up. Make sure you know all the poems well and which poems can be compared with others, just in case.

For the conflict section, the poems that haven't come up are falling leaves, Belfast confetti, poppies and right word
