GCSE 2023 Eduqas Component 2 Literature paper

Hi, so today i sat my GCSE component 2 for literature and well lets say the questions were slightly frustrating and unexpecting.
So for the Inspector calls question it was about 'Some of the Characters reaction throughout the play about the truths' so this question is not word for word but gives the overall gist of the question and was pretty decent although it didn't give much insight on what the main focus should be. Moreover the Christmas carol question was focused on 'Supernatural and ghostly appearances happen throughout the novel discuss the impact of them throughout the novel' again this isn't word for word but shows the overall understanding of the question.

hey i sat the same exam as you today and i agree even the extracts given weren't amazing. how did you find the unseen poetry? i just wanna make sure i got the meaning and message of the poems right lmao.

i did same paper but lotf and jekyll and hyde, unseen poetry was pretty okay tbh, we had done "nettles" in year ten so i was kinda familiar with it already, i talked about how it was a parent trying to protect their child from harm, showing the almost innate instinct to protect offspring, but i also talked about how it was futile since it is near impossible to forever protect, shown through the personification of "busy sun and rain", even the elements are busy working, it is impossible to stop the course of nature. Then i talked about how the last line was a metaphor for how the child will undergo many conflicts in life and whilst a parent wants to stop this, it is not possible. The poet may be describing like how parents should allow their kids to grow up. Idk it was kinda purre waffle, i felt like loads of my points were super similar
I liked the second poem better, i said how it was a father celebrating a child's victories and suggesting how it is okay to find things difficult and struggle, but you should celebrate what you have already achieved. I struggled to find comparison points between the two though.
Bro i hope grade boundaries are low cos my extract questions were pretty much a flop
