Eng lit paper 2023

I used like quotes mostly from the extract and pretty much only used the extract and then at the end included a paragraph each about the whole text for both questions so will i still get a decent mark or am i cut of at a certain mark?

You can still get a good mark, but do write more of outside the extract for your modern prose. It is fine to use more than the extract than the rest of the book but should keep a 60/40 balance in my opinion. The way to do this is write 2 paras on the extract and a para on outside the text or (maybe another if you have time). But I'm sure you did better than you think and should aim for your desired grade, and there is lot to turn it around in paper 2.
