Hiya, first of all congrats on your amazing results :smile:

,
Well i wondering if you could give some study tips for streetcar named desire, i seem to understand the points and i make great original points in class. through i show this in my essays i still do not get above a c/d i think it may be because of how i write my actual essays and i'm not exactly sure what else to mention in the essay. Also i'm doing anthology based on paris, which is completely above me and i really struggle with it would you have any tips for this, how to do essays. I do aqa and in AS

Hello!! Firstly congratulations that is amazing, I was just wondering what texts you did. For my first exam we have three lots of texts, The Handmaid's Tale, 12 poems by Seamus Heaney and then a whole Paris Anthology with transcripts and articles. For the second exam we have a creative task with the us of Into The Wild and then we have another task with A Streetcar Named Desire.Are any of these similar to the ones you did, if so what advice would you have for revision and how to approach the questions?
