I did Eng Lit AS two years ago. Can i do the remainder year to make it a full A level

It depends if the specification is still running. Which exam board and what specification was it ?

As long as you completed the AS in 2009 and not 2008, then you should be fine to do it again (the syllabus changed September 2008).

Correct me if i'm wrong.

I achieved a C. tbh, I didn’t put much effort into it, I stupidly decided to pick it in my second year while I was doing 3 A2’s so my attention was focused more on them! Just work hard and I'm sure you'll do great! :smile:

You should do it then - a C is very respectable, especially in a hard subject like lit. I'm doing it now and struggling :s-smilie:

You can't do an extra year to make it a full a level because the specs changed and the modules you do has also changed.

Wow, we did the same courseworks then!
My othello one was 27/30, so an A, but my DOAS should be a D/C :frown:

Wow! Serious kudos for Othello! What question did you do? :awesome:

I'm hoping my DOAS will be a lot better :bigsmile:

I had a crap teacher for 6 months, and he overmarked all of our coursework (apart from mine) and he marked my DOAS draft at 27, but i've got a horrible feeling that he's overmarked it :afraid:

Which is your favourite exam text?
