To Kill A Mockingbird - help please!

Hey guys!
Im studying to kill a mockingbird for my GCSE lit and was wondering if anybody knew which characters we needed to revise (as there are a hell of alot)
Thank you!
Also any revision resources and essay structures would be appreciated

There just seems like so many other important characters?

Oh, in one of my mocks, there was a question on Aunt Alexandra (except this was for WJEC English, so I'm not sure if it applies to you...)

Focus on the Finch family, the Radley family, the Ewell family, Dill, Tom, Calpurnia and Miss Maudie. It's better to revise too much than not enough :smile:

Yea, i'm doing AQA so i'm not sure, but if she came up then i suspect that she is considered an important character

Hey! I'm so worried about this exam as I'm not prepared in the slightest! My teacher thinks Mrs Dubose might come up, and maybe courage or hypocrisy! I really don't know though x
