for romeo and juliet i think it could be on conflict, or some other theme - perhaps parental roles? love (juliet's for romeo i'm pretty sure) came up so i doubt it will be about her or love again this year. but i think male characters (tybalt, mercutio, etc) would be good to revise because they're all quite violent - but you can also talk about juliet for conflict as in internal conflict if that were to come up so!

but there's also been nothing on fate before, so the inevitability of death and violence or something like that possibly would be interesting! but obviously you can never rely on predictions, because there is obviously so many different options. i have a feeling its gonna be a horrible question but lets pray its not!!

I do r&j on edexcel and I've noticed that every year since 2017, it's been a theme question however last year it was the first character question so its likely they're going to do a character question

these aren't predictions but just so people know: for AIC, eric isn't coming up because he already came up in 2022. sheila came up in the specimen paper of 2014 so it's not totally unlikely but i wouldn't totally trust this one either. and i'm like 99% sure it won't be mr birling because he came up in 2020 so everyone hoping it's mr birling better find another character to hope on 😭😭

my teacher said it won’t be bc ppl learn it under different names and some ppl don’t learn it at all 😭 more likely to be on whether the characters have control over their own actions or something like that
