Macbeth, Christmas carol, inspector calls

How many quotes is everyone learning for each of these texts.?

I’m stressing out as idk if what I learn will be enough to help me in the exam.

I did Macbeth and Inspector calls for GCSE, and I remember learning about 5 quotes for each theme and character. The trick is to plan in advance and REUSE quotes for different themes. :smile:

So in reality I didn't have to learn 200 quotes, I probably learned about 30 for all 3 texts.

Omg thank you so much. I planned to learn exactly 5 for each character and was stressing it wouldn’t be enough.
For Macbeth did you learn quotes for each character and the different scenes?

I learned quotes for each character and for each theme - I didn't memorise by scene because they don't ask scene questions in the exam (at least I think). Revision cards really helped.
