I am doing the eduqas exam board. i myself need tips as well but one tip I could give is to include as many quotes as possible (that are relevant) in your answer. the examiners last year said that many people couldn't get higher than a 7 because they only used 3-4 quotes

Should i use 6 minimum in essays and poems as well?

yeah, around 6 would be good. for the english literature, i am doing an inspector calls so my teacher advised me to learn at least 6-7 quotes on each character and on each theme.

I'm in the process of finishing mine. there's just too many. Trust me, i feel like i am going to fail too but try to be positive. even if the only quote you learn is "you're squiffy"

That's what I'm doing. The first few days are probably the hardest. But i always remind myself that it will only be for 5 more months and then i can sleep for however many hours i want. and remember since you are waking up earlier, you must sleep earlier as well. I wish you good luck!
