I'm contemplating whether to do english foundation gcse or higher...
Overall I would like a B grade in both language and literature. I know foundation paper is only limited to a C grade but my english teacher said my coursework would bring my grade up to a B.
I was wondering if anyone had any advice on which tier to chose?
Choose higher, in year 10 I did higher AQA English Language mock for the first time and gained a C. In year 11, I did the foundation paper as a mock, and got a D. A month after I did the English Language mock for higher this time, and got an A. The last two questions are basically identical in foundation and higher. But if you get say, 20/40 on the last two questions, it will be worth lower in foundation than on higher. Plus if you do higher you might surprise yourself and come out with an A like I did!
