Yes; you are expected to know the context of every poem that you have studied.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

YES. You should know this! Who taught you?

Sorry if it came across as sarcastic, I was being serious.

Looking at the markscheme right now.
AO1 (understanding the text and actually answering what it's asking, references to text, quotes) - 12 marks
AO2 (analyse language, form, structure, subject terminology, the effects of these) - 12 marks
AO3 (context, relationship between texts) - 6 marks
OH NO i only just turned to the back page and saw there was another poem can anyone give me a quick summary
Thanks, exams tommorow. I'm predicted an 8 as well, no idea why our teacher didn't tell is this.
What cluster are you doing? If you're doing love and relationships, I'll send you my context notes :smile:
