Thank you so much! I was just wondering whether you have an example of what an A* answer looks like for meanings and representations questions? I looked at the sample answers on the AQA website but they were quite low-level answers.

Some revision tips:
If anyone needs any more notes or stuff for A levels feel free to PM me.
Good luck to everyone who's sitting/sat their exams
- Start your revision early - so for example, for those who are taking their A level exams now, it's best to have started your revision in the Easter holidays (so around 3 months before the exams).
- Create a realistic revision timetable - make sure to make one that you're actually going to stick to, with enough breaks in between your revision periods and leave slots free for when you have to run errands, work, breakfast, lunch, dinner etc
- Use past papers - these are the most useful resources for revision because then you get an idea of what your real exams will actually be like. Plus it's the closest you get to taking your mocks/real exams and you can practice them at home or in the library in timed conditions (like the actual exam).
- Use flashcards - they're good for when it's getting closer to the exam, so a few days before and on the day of the exam so you can just read them for last minute revision.
- Always ask for help - ask your teacher if you're struggling with a question, a topic or anything related to your subject since that's what they're there for, to help their students get the best results possible. Also, ask them to mark your answers to past papers, this is the best feedback for you since they're sort of like examiners themselves (they mark answers) and you can then see what your strengths and weaknesses are and how to improve. Ask your family/friends to test you on topics/questions you're struggling with on the morning of the exams (with flashcards).
If anyone needs any more notes or stuff for A levels feel free to PM me.
Good luck to everyone who's sitting/sat their exams

My teacher, an actual examiner who's spoken with the chief examiner may a time in the past, has strongly advised revising only one side of CLD. The impacts of a question that includes qualities of literacy or one disproportionately more difficult than the literacy question may be grade-changing. She used to teach in a sixth form that only taught spoken and was baffled at it.
