Hi to be honest I haven't really revised and I only plan to do 2hours. Which I'd say if you watch at least 2 episodes of two different TV DRAMAs fresh before the exam you'll be more prepared. Including remembering specific 'media' terminology. Hopefully, it will go decent as it's the last year for the A*-G specification. Do let me know how your exam goes, good luck!

sorry but i think I'm doing a different course to you as our Q1 wasn't pre-released but would be along the lines of ''Explain what makes Serial Dramas popular''

I'm totally lost on the predicted questions but try to build up your own idea for a tv serial drama and include as much terminology as possible. I'd also try to research the series you are using and use well-known ones like Dr. Who or Riverdale. Make sure to look over the theories briefly but if you forget some in the exam, just write about the ones you do know.

There are no pre released questions to my knowledge, rather we infer from the preliminary material what they could be.

There's much debate about what Question 2-4 could be.

Hope today went fine for everyone! I wrote far too much for Q1 and left too little time for Q2-4. Really struggled with structuring the storyboard and only wrote half a side for q4. The grade boundaries are a joke too !!
