Hi,
would the best method for revising for subjects such as english and literature, would be to do nothing but past papers?
If you have any other study methods you are doing or/ feel are good feel free to post it here!(GSCE)

Past papers should only be used as revision if you know all the info.
For example for literature you need to know the quotes,themes ect...
I usually put things on flashcards

Use Mr Bruff (youtube) and Seneca Learning (https://senecalearning.com/) - they have helped me the most with the analysis and learning the quotes

for english language, i watched the mr bruff videos he made, i found them really helpful, also for p1 q3 my teacher gave us this:E0BA2505-2C89-48B6-8A64-67BC75E0E9D2.jpg.jpeg B66B3A69-9906-4B82-A3DA-13959862CA8D.jpg.jpeg
there are plenty of p1q5/p2q5 questions out there for you to practice, just ensure you get the right tone and voice for your piece on p2q5, also set it out correctly if it’s a newspaper etc. also for p2q5 id say just have opinions on stuff, most of the time it’s about school/technology, just have an opinion and be able to write it. but for the love of me don’t use: •irrelevant/unrealistic statistics
•fake professors saying that they’ve got a theory about something
•etc
