PLEASE HELP I'm so cooked for my English Lit A Level Mock (All My Sons/ Skirrid Hill)

Hey, I'm in Year 12 and I have a mock on Thursday where I have to compare All My Sons with Skirrid Hill (AQA Paper 2A, but the comparison is the only part of the paper we are doing). I studied All my Sons with my English teacher at the beginning of the school year, but since then she has been on maternity leave and has been replaced with a cover. My cover teacher isn't the most competent and we have only covered 16/41 of the poems from Skirrid Hill ( Mametz Wood, The Farrier, Inheritance, Marking Time, Border Country, Farther, Trees, Hedge School, Joseph Jones, Y Gaer, The Hill Fort, Flag, Song, Happy Accidents, Four Movements in the Scale of Two, Liable to Floods). Even those ones we haven't covered in great depth, and we never did any work on comparison. I wrote one essay on insecurity, but she never marked it.
I'm getting A*s in the other side of the course and I would really like to do reasonably well on this side too but I just don't know the texts well enough. I've been trying to plan past questions all morning and I genuinely can't think of any poems that fit the themes, let alone know how to compare that with All My Sons.
If anyone has anything (literally anything I am begging) that might help.... resources, essays they've written, encouragement of any kind.... then that would be SO HELPFUL. I have other mocks to revise for too and yet here I am dying over English....
