They're only mocks. Give you an idea of what you need to do for the real exam. Better to mess up these than the real ones and most people go up a grade anyway. Don't worry too much!

Elusive_Moose is right (love the username btw!) It's better to mess up on the mocks, cos you can truly be sure you won't make that mistake in the real thing! In my English mock, I wrote a Romeo & Juliet essay about love and didn't even mention Romeo & Juliet! What a moron :smile:

You can bet I didn't make that mistake in the real thing, and went on to get an A*. So there ya go! Good luck anyway with the result!

Historical sense and poetic sense should not, in the end, be contradictory, for if poetry is the little myth we make, history is the big myth we live, and in our living, constantly remake.
