Have you started reading the texts yet? Don't want to sound negative, but if you haven't read the books and poems in the exam this is going to be a very difficult challenge.

There are some good notes here: https://www.bbc.com/education/examspecs/zxqncwx

You should be able to read Blood Brothers so I would start with that. Macbeth and the language of Shakespeare will be more of a challenge.
