I dont do inspector calls...

For of mice and men, make sure you know every single detail about ever character... once again, it is like the other... make relevant points and you gain marks.. But like i said, make sure you know everything about each character, especially Carlson and Slim (Carlson has never come up yet).

RE aint too bad! I find it rrrly easy so I'm glad it's an easy start.
Hahaahahah that's the best way I learn tbh, doing past papers - seeing what i cant do, and revising that. I'm aiming for A* in the three separate sciences and im still on unit 1 for each.... sickkkkkkkkk (doomed af)

It was quite hard and I managed to scrape an A but you just had to make sure you have clear points with evidence and you will get marks. I completely failed on the poem section so I would practise that a lot and make sure you know your techniques as they get easily get you marks in the exam if you are stuck. Above all if you don't panic you'll be fine :smile:

Thanks for the tips, I'll be sure to practice the poetry section as that is actually my weakest section. Thanks again!
