    I did this exam in the January just gone for Relationships and got an A so I'm not retaking it, but good luck!

    This January the questions were about Harmonium and the Sonnets. The June before that they were about feelings in the Manhunt and emotions Nettles.

    I would advise you use MITSL. Do a paragraph on each of these categories on the poem you have chosen:

    Meaning
    Imagery
    Tone
    Structure
    Language

    or My Itchy Toes Smell Loads.

    If you use that method you will do fine, but always relate it back to the question at the end of each paragraph to ensure your answer is relevant and the effect on the reader and you will do fine.
