Eduqas Media A-level

I do the same course. I'm not completely sure if these are the right ones but these are the ones that my teacher used. These are including coursework and for all the questions so I guess work out the percentage of yours and match it.
(Out of 210 I think)
If that is right then I think it would then convert to an A* as you need around 72% to get an A* and you got 88%
A* 151
A 131
B 106
C 82
D 58
E 34

For the individual papers:
Paper 1 (out of 90)
A* 64
A 56
B 45
C 35
D 25
E 14

Paper 2 (out of 90)
A* 65
A 56
B 46
C 35
D 25
E 15


Again I'm not if these are the ones that everyone is using these were just the ones my teacher gave us. Hope this helps.

thank you so much!

No Problem.
You did really well. I have a mock in a couple days - do you have any resources you can share/ exampler responses or practice questions. That would be really helpful if you could.

Thanks

here are the summer ones, hope this helps!

good luck with your mock, I am sure you will do well

Thanks that's really helpful!
Also would you have any tips on how you structure the representation and Media Language questions - I seem to struggle with that.

Did u sit the one with the beyonce formation comparision. If that was it. I struggled so bad. You did so well. I havent gotten mine back yet. Hopefully I did well

Hi, thank you! I didn't sit the beyonce formation comparison. I am sure you did well

What did it include in the mock paper?

can't remember to be honest as I sat it over a month ago. I sat one of the sample papers not sure which one though, definitely was not 2020 one if you are looking for that.

Hey I’m really struggling with a level media. Got a C in my end of year 12 exam. Is it possible to bump it up to an A? What resources do u use to revise, as of right now I just use Miss fishers videos for notes and then try to memorise them. Anything else I can do in the exam to get the top grades? Very stressed.

On my first year 12 test I got a C and on results day achieved an A* so it is possible. I used Mrs Fisher's videos and practically memorised them. There are also revision notes published by the exam board I think for a few texts (i.e. black panther, tide...etc).

To get the top grades, you NEED to learn theorists. Make sure you know how to apply them to texts. i.e. for hesmondhalgh's theory how he says that producers minimise risk to maximise profits. This is applicable to Black panther as Disney could arguably be seen as cashing in on cultural events (e.g. the movie was in cinemas by black history month). For most exam questions you will need to learn your theorists for top marks.

Time management is also important in media. I tend to write quite fast, I think for the mini test that I did in year 13 I wrote 8 pages (double sided) which is a lot. I found that if I understood the content this helped with my writing pace. So maybe ask your teacher for practice exam questions to help with this!

Coursework is also important as it contributes to a large proportion of your grade. Make sure you secure an A* in this! Try getting full marks on that pre written bit explaining your coursework (can't remember what that is called!). Hope this helps let me know if you need any more help

Is it mainly just memorising the miss fisher videos and those revision sheets? To do well u just have to remember a lot and the theories that go with the set product and also just write as much as u can? My teacher says to just memorise miss fisher videos and write as much as I can so yeah. Is there any structure answering the questions? Also how do you approach answering media language questions like what do u look for in the unseen text?
