Omg I'm so sorry that I've taken so long to reply but I haven't been on TSR to avoid panicking during my exams. I'm on OCR for Eng Lit and P1 was awful for me! I found the Hamlet section far better than the Ibsen/Rossetti section when usually its the other way around. Out of all six questions for Ibsen/Rossetti, I settled on the one about raising issues but not giving solutions (something like that?). Paper 2 (I did dystopia) was okay. They gave us a weird extract but the essay section was alright. I've already preferred the P2 side of the course anyway, I usually get A*s in it compared to Bs in P1. It was an okay set of papers this year but they weren't AMAZING, I guess A Levels rarely are.

The grade boundaries for eng lit are insane as they are anyway but the fact that they've removed coursework has just made me worry a lot more. I hope they're easy on us this year!

I think it was on "is it possible to remain loyal in the world of Hamlet?" Or something about loyalty in the state of Elsinore. It was fairly decent

I'm sitting English Lit and History A Level in October... it's so soon! English Lit isn't too content heavy which is why I've decided to do both now. Really nervous, feeling more anxious everyday.

Does anyone know what the question for the Gothic was? I am a private candidate and I currently don't have a teacher or exams until summer and I would like to do a question I haven't been set before.
