I think if you also look at schoolwork and homework anything could help you remember the content and quotes. You could also read your books and highlight key quotes. I still havent revised for it.:s-smilie: Im doing the same books as you.

Aqa?
Short example of a quote and analyses:

Quote for Fred: "Scrooge's nephew laughed in this way: holding his sides" - Fred, scrooges nephew is seen to always be laughing and taking nothing too seriously in throughout the novel. This emphasizes how he was joyfull and lived a happy laugh, which is a direct contrast to scrooge who is represented to have a more of a melancholy life

Yup
Good luck! I'm also doing the same board and Qs so we can confer after :yep:
Characters include Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, Duncan, banquo (altho he was done last year along w/ witches), macduff malcolm

Themes most likely to be asked: guilt, kingship, gender roles (according to many people and teachers)

Is it possible for minor characters like Fezziwig for ACC or Donalbain for Macbeth to come up?
It is possible but the chances on it happening are very, very low. Theres not much you can infer about them as characters and though this papers meant to be a curve ball, since we're the third year, i dont think itll be that harsh.
