AQA English Macbeth?

hi

I have an upcoming assessment on lady Macbeth and know that it is based on lady Macbeth.

it has to do with gender, her change in character as well as her power and manipulation over Macbeth and how she takes control of situations like in the banquet.
the assessment also has to do with the themes of power, guilt, blood and her relationship with Macbeth changing over time.

I have a general idea about what the q could be on but could you guys help me with predictions of what the question is and the extract given, based on your experience?

the moments that I believe are required are act3scene4, act5scene1, act1scene5 and some parts of act 2

help is much appreciated

ik I'm 2 weeks two late lol but thanks for your response.

I suspected the question would be similar, but my teacher hinted at change, so I prepared an answer for how her power changes throughout the play.

turned out it was how does lady Macbeth herself change in the play, so I could easily apply the power aspect and use it for my line of argument
