Edexcel A Level English Literature Paper 3 (9ET0 03) - 16th June 2023 [Exam Chat]

Original post by ninak12

is it possible that the same poems that have come up in past years including AS would come up for potd and rossetti?? i don't know if ill have time to go over all of them

for POD i know they’ve repeated a couple that they’ve asked in the AS for the A-Level in later years - but it’s unlikely they’ll repeat poems that they’ve asked in previous A-Level papers (e.g., they asked about Material in 2018 AS and then asked it again in 2020 A-Level)

ok so the list of poems that haven't yet come up is
- history (john burnside)
- the deliverer (tishani doshi)
- the lammas hireling (ian duhig)
- the gun (vicki feaver)
- out of the bag (seamus heaney)
- from the journal of a disappointed man (andrew motion)
- please hold (ciaran o'driscoll)
- on her blindness (adam thorpe)

personally i'm hoping for the gun, the lammas hireling, the deliverer, or journal of a disappointed man

I honestly don't think there is any point in predicting poetry, if you know the poems well enough it should be easy
