AQA GCSE English Literature (Higher) - Poetry

I am currently studying Heaney and Clarke and the pre 1914 poems for my AQA GCSE English Literature exam (higher) on the 25th of May :eek:
Due to the fact my teacher is really slow and wastes time, we have only studies the Heaney poems so far! I have been trying to get ahead during Easter and having been studying all the key poems (using CGP books and online resources)

There are 12 key poems as the AQA website shows:

I was wondering which other poems from the AQA Anthology you would recommend I study? Obviously, time is of the essence so I don't want to do too many poems but which are the ones that would be useful to have studied for the exam (on top of the key poems)?

Any help would be much appreciated! I really want to crack on with the poems and get essay practising but want to know which extra poems to do. Thanks!

The poems you have been told to study will be in the exam - they won't miss any out :smile:
Though if you're doing it for personal interest or expansion of the mind, then do all of them!
