A Level Essays

Hey guys,

So obviously exams are like in two weeks time
And I've been going over content by reading my notes to revise. I do essay based subjects. But I would like to get A grades. But it's my writing that brings me down. People may say ask your teachers
But when I do they're just like PEEL and analyse. But I'm like HOW!!!! I actually do not know how to analyse as stupid as it sounds. When do I analyse,after the explanation? Or after the evidence? If I've got an explanation why do I need to analyse? What am I analysing? Am I analysing my evidence to see how true it is or analysing my explanation? Can someone please give me an example sentence or paragraph which portrays analysis. Also linking. How do you link to the next paragraph would it be like "Another example the supports this view is..." then start your next paragraph. And how do you link back to the question at the same time????? Also any other good points. I'm usually around C's and B's but I want/need A's somebody please help me.
