An Inspector Calls predictions??? 2016 English Lit

I'm doing my AIC exam on the 23rd and I'm not sure what character/theme will come up. I have a feeling it could be Responsibility/Sheila/Mrs Birling but is it safe to mainly just revise them?
Does anyone have any other ideas what it could be :smile:

I'm doing the WJEC English Literature paper 27th of May, last year on the same paper was a question about attitudes to women at the time and Mrs Birling, as well as an extract question on Gerald I think. I predict that there may be a question on the younger v the older generation, you could talk about that forever!!

Ahh okay, thank you, I'll do some practice on the generations amongst the rest :smile:

I think it could be Gerald/Sheila and possibly a question on age?

I wouldn't risk just revising those though, just in case:s-smilie:

We did that for the mock and ended up with a high D:/

I know how you feel ! i haven't started my inspector calls revision however i started of mice and men, what I did, I made a mind map for each theme e.g Dreams then i would find like very 2 important quotations for each character that represent the theme e.g when george says'' we will get a big vegetable patch...blah blah''. I would find lennie and george's dream quotes, crook, curley's wife and candy!

Just realised i forgot to include curley:/

I chose literature for a levels. I love speaking about it but i need to practice doing exams structure! I'm really scared,I'm trying to aim for a B or A.

Flash cards seem useful, how do you pick 3 quotes for each character?since there are thousands

I just made a mindmap on steinbecks intentions
