GCSE English literature

Does anyone know how the english literature 30 markers are split up?

Like is it 15 marks on extract analysis and 15 marks on whole text analysis or 20 on extract and 10 on whole text?

I'd love to know cuz it'd help me understand just how i have to split my answers up to achieve the best marks

I vaguely remember it being the first or the second one. Sorry I can’t help more 🤗

Are you with AQA?

If so, there aren't specific marks for the extract vs the whole text.

The marks are divided as so: (30 marks – AO1=12, AO2=12, AO3=6)

Does that make sense?

oh okay, thank you so much because I always seemed to get 20/30 and got confused and my friend told me it's probably because i write so much for the given text and write 1 paragraph for the full text but that makes more sense i guess
