There’s nothing as impossible so you could always try and see what happens. In my English Lit and Lang exams I end up getting 9’s (A*) every time although I revise only 2 days prior.

Yet this also depends on how well you’ve absorbed this information throughout the years as you progress - really ends up to how well you know your texts and memorisation skills.

How did revise for poetry and novel?

i wrote quotes on post-its divided by theme and character (latter only for novel), taped them to my closet door, and got my friends to test me on them. i also planned out past and predicted questions for both cause i was too lazy/ got overwhelmed by the thought of answering them. for poetry i wrote the title of each poem, what poem i would compare it to, and a plan for each, so i'd be prepped. in the exam, novel was on one that i had predicted but didnt actually plan! and poetry, of course, i had planned. i forgot my final point but was able to come up with a substitute and it meant i could spend more time on writing rather than thinking up a plan
