A* for English Lit

Hi guys, I'm a few months into my english literature AS, and I was wondering how I can get top marks when the exams come around. Any tips and advice would be really helpful.

Okay so ok doing English lit this year too and I want to aim for an A or A* if I'm lucky. Basically

Practise essays, re read your books and poem over and over again. Analyse in depth. Follow your AO criteria and do what they say!!

Talk about critics point of view to get top marks on the book you are studying

Read one poem everyday and annotate the bejizzle out of it. Helps to read some stuff that are similar to the poems and books you are studying to get an idea of the context

revise like months before your exams

What book are you doing? :smile:
