I felt It went Ok, I was really stressed out about this exam, turns out that the work I did on the weekend and last night actually has helped me learn how to analyse things, I was prepared well for Eva, but George and Lennie not so much, but the passage itself was fairly straight forward so It wasn't a big deal. I was aiming for a B, expecting a C when I went in for this exam, I think I achieved that B personally.
For section A I'd say I achieved a range of Band 4, 5 and 6, I'd say i let myself down on 6.5, I didn't really return top themes too much, I'd hope for around 23/30 there If I'm lucky, as for OMAM I lacked on the evaluation and close analysis, I was forced to cut short because of time, I think maybe 18/30 on that plus maybe 2 or 3 Grammar marks for each one (I have no idea how this is marked, but I'm bound to have made errors). So overall about 46/68 which is usually around about an A/B, so I'm feeling relatively confident. The paper was probably no harder than last years, section B was probably easier, So my guess would be something like
54 = A*
47 = A
38 = B
29 = C
Maybe something like that, then again maybe less people had time to prepare this year, plus plenty of people were preparing just for Curley and Birling, I'm not sure, But I think I'd have struggled more on last years paper than this one
