Edexcel A-level English Literature Paper 3 - 11th June 2025 [Exam Chat]

the only two poems for POTD that haven’t come up ever are ‘the deliverer’ and ‘the lammas hireling’, so i am pretty certain it’ll either be both or one of them with another poem because my teacher said it’s pretty hard to find a poem that can compare both. any thoughts?

yeah most people are saying this, but honestly that's a very narrow range and may be too predictable - so it's not impossible the exam board may start repeating poems from this year. in 2017 they asked about on her blindness and please hold, so those are more likely to repeat
honestly I'm going to revise all of the poems except the ones that came up last year and the year before, because they're definitely not going to be repeated so soon

which ones are those?

Yeah, especially after that Drama paper, Edexcel seems to be doing repeated questions, I wouldn't be shocked if neither Lammas Hireling or The Deliverer came up

yeah i agree with u, i'm also gonna go over all the poems in case but with extra emphasis on the two that haven't come up, or just find the poems that u can def compare with to lammas hireling and deliverer. i'm ngl the unseen always gets me to im terrified for that.
how are we feeling for keats btw?

no i still think either one of them will come up

Probably one of them but unlikely to be both, if they both do come up that would be a dream though

i do romantics b keats i'm a bit worried - not as much though. i didn't do as well in my y13 mocks for romantics bc I barely revised them since I was so scared for unseen so hoping everything goes well. last year's questions were really good for romantics though bc they lit asked about melancholy for keats and another poem so I'm unsure

POTD and John Keats for 2hrs 15mins; what a treat 🥴

Do u have any predictions for keats?

praying its passing and glassing, or babylon the great as they havent come up yet, tbh most of the ones that havent come up are pretty good - other than froth, i hate froth.

Drear Nighted December has yet to be a question. To Sleep and To Autumn have had little attention aswell, my focus are going into those three poems.
