Yes you can, your exam is worth more than your CA so it can drag your mark down easily if you get a C for example

I think you could, as long as you got a very high C, although I'm not familiar with the technicalities of foundation papers

I think it would be very hard and you'd have to get almost all the marks. Maybe ask your teacher if they could swap your tier?

Yes, it is possible for both English language and literature as long as you get good grades in both the coursework and exam.

I would really suggest you watch Mr Bruff on youtube-he is awesome.

Don't know the exam board but I think it is 25% of control assessment and 75% exam.
