i think a poety Q on an evil/currupt/good/ heroic character (well something on a spacific type of character) will come up

i think a drama Q on climax or turning point will come up.

i think a prose Q on dilemma, or ending will come up.

(oh god, please!)

Yeah predictions more or less as above.

The teacher teaching our play said she reckons climax will come up

And the teacher teaching us a text says that she has a feeling that ending will come up. Fingers crossed if ending comes up for Jekyll and Hyde i'm sorted, theres three,lol. And that makes a fantastic essay.

I hope there's a prose question on setting, and something on emotions for poetry. Then I'm sorted. That's not a prediction though, that's just a hope.

For the Drama Q- I hope it is about a relationship between two characters so i can do macbeth

For the Prose Q- I hope it is on a key incident for lord of the flies

For Poetry- I hope it is on death or emotion so I can do visiting hour

Every person I meet who does Macbeth also does Lord of the Flies... hmm..

Well for Drama myself want a Relationship Question but for The Crucible or a question on flaws but that came up last year so maye a powerful female character or even a Climax/Turning Point.

For Prose I'm doing Catcher so a question on Grief, Lonliness or Symbolism/Setting would be good.
I'm doing Macbeth/Frankenstein/The Crucible and/or Kubla Khan/Batter My Heart. I Haven't actually read any of the prose/plays, have relied on summaries and only really know a couple of Macbeth quotes, which I have worked on independantly. Higher English is so unpredictable, I haven't a clue what specific thematic concepts may pop up tommorow, although I can hope, and do hope for a question on Conscience and/or a poetry question on the psychological workings of the mind does appear.

Edit, I am absolutely crap at English, got 57% and 52% in both prelims
i'm hoping that for Drama a question on a the changes in a major character will come up or a question on key speeches/dialogues which haven't come up for several years.
for Poems maybe a question on a personal experience so I can do Revelation, or a relationship one so I can do Anne Hathaway


aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh I can't believe it's tomorrow!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Hurray for summaries. I haven't read the Crucible either! I liked last year's drama question about a character with a flaw. That would be perfect for the Crucible and Proctor. I'm doubting very much something like that would come up two years running though. :frown:
