OCR GCSE English Lit/Lang

How is everyone revising for the paper? Have you learnt everything about your 19th Century book and modern text?
Yes, I am :smile: Just want the test to hurry up and come and stop this anxious feeling!

Same here! I'm doing Macbeth, Jane Eyre, Never Let Me Go and obviously Poetry for the literature paper. The quotes for Macbeth are quite tricky, so I would recommend writing a few key quotes down and trying to remember them. The soliloquies in the pay are also excellent so be sure to learn those as well. :smile:

I am revising quotes, themes, characters and the general plot for Jane Eyre and NLMG. There is so much to remember as well about the actual story... looking at a few past papers as well always helps. What about you? :smile:

Ah the classic english revision style. Do you know what the type of question will be on Mondays paper? Will it be like comparison, themes etc?

It will most likely be theme related and will give a wider view of the book so you can work with a variety of moments (so they can have a range of responses rather than everyone picking the same quotes,moments etc!)
My school is on OCR, but our books are:
The strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
An Inspector Calls
The Merchant of Venice
