AQA English Literature GCSE 2015 JUNE SUMMER *OFFICIAL THREAD* OMAM AIC

Is it from
the foundation 2014 June paper

Does anyone know what last year questions were for OMAM, AIC and character and voice??? can't find the june 2014 past paper..

Hi, thanks for all of this. I just need to ask, if Tituba were to come up in 'The Crucible' what the could the question be? Thanks very much

Hey
I honestly think it could be as simple as 'How is Tituba presented in the Crucible?' - it wouldn't be fair if they set the question 'How does Tituba present the theme of _____' simply because she's a minor character and its hard enough analyzing her already just with the former question.

if you need any character analysis/quotes have a look at this webstite: http://mrhoyesibwebsite.com (go to drama on the side menu and then look for crucible)

Here you go everyone. I'm really skeptical about this hypothesis someone proposed, it has seemed to work in the past but this question (part a) Is very similar to last years higher question. As for part b, there is a possibility. So please don't rely on this. (Foundation 2014 OMAM AQA) to everyone sitting this exam

why is it soo improtant to you guys?

Been doing some research on Character and Voice stuff for school, and obviously the exam board might not work like this but I think the only named poem they haven't used is 'Les Grands Seigneurs' so that could possibly come up. Also the poems that were used in 2011 (which I think is when the exam changed) were 'My Last Duchess' and 'Medusa', so they have potential to be used. I know you asked at the beginning of the year, but I was looking for some predictions too and did my own research so I thought I'd share Good luck with all your exams x

So I am ****ting myself for the AIC question as I had a change of teacher when we started learning it and I don't understand a thing. I've been looking at past papers and don't have a clue

One of the questions I'm looking at is: "What do you think the importance of Inspector Goole is and how does Priestley present him?"

I was wondering if anyone could give me some points for this? I am well aware that this obviously isn't the question that will come up, but I think that it will help me gain a more thorough understanding of the whole text and the sort of thing I need to come up with to respond to a question like this

Literally not revised this in ages but this is what I would put,

So first you need to come up with 4 points containing a 'what' and a 'how'. For example,

Priestly uses the Inspectors tone and language to show the weaknesses and immaturity of Mr and Mrs Birling.

Inspector Goole is used as almost a voice for Priestly that is criticising the upper class.

Priestly uses Inspector Gooles thought out order of interrogating the family to allow the family's real characters and personality's to be revealed.

Inspector Gooles interactions is used to unite the younger generation against their parents

These points would be followed by evidence, analysis, and writers intention. If I were you, I would read the play again to get an idea

That's really helpful, thank you. I just really struggle with analysing plays as they are so different from novels, especially with language ☺

Im doing OMAM, AIC and conflict for poetry
My english teachers prediction is Curley or Candy for OMAM as these 2 characters have not yet come up.

Also Mr Birling for AIC as one of the questions. Remember these are just predictions

with last years curveball it is still very unpredictable !!
Very nervous for these english lit exams !!!
