AS English language

Is AS English language hard to get an A in? And is it a big workload?

Moved to the Study Help section

I took English Language A Level, and yes, it is difficult - but I managed to get an A

Im only going to do it for AS though! Is as hard?

Well I did AS and A2 and would say AS is a lot easier (well, that's kind of a given haha). There is a big jump from GCSE, but not as much as some other subjects - e.g sciences.

If you need any help, just ask away

Okay thank you so much is as a big workload?

Depending on the exam board you're on - you'll probably do coursework during the year and then the exam in the summer. The coursework we did was 3000 words - which was split into two pieces of work being 1000 words, and then two 500 word commentaries (which you spoke about the techniques you used in the two pieces of work).

I didn't find the work load high, no

Okay okay thanks for the advice is the actual exam hard?

Work load was perfectly fine. I absolutely hated the subject and my teacher was terrible (skipped teaching an entire unit etc) but I got a B. Didn't carry it on.

I'm not going to lie, I didn't revise that much for it and got an A. However, I did attend all lessons and do the work - so obviously put effort in

Ive chosen art but changing it to english language because of arts time consuming workload

Art is a huge subject. I took it as a BTEC, and then for a while as an A Level, but it didn't really work out. I procrastinate an inordinate amount with creative things.
