Drama gcse exam help!

Hi, I'm doing drama gcse and have got a high 'a' grade overall in my acting (worth 60%) I'm predicted a*'s in english-I would really like to get an a* in drama, and I think that I should be good enough at writing to do so. However, we only do pretty basic writing exam stuff in our classes because we're not in sets and lots of people who do it are only aiming for c's. There aren't really any revision guides for drama, and so I can't see model a/a* answers. In my mock I got a b but I really think I can do better than this seeing as we get to take in notes with us..the problem is that most of the notes we get in class are only of about a b standard. So.. I was basically wondering if anyone knows of places I can get good revision notes (my plays are woman in black and abigail's party), see good model answers or see detailed mark schemes for the drama exam (I'm doing the one which has questions i.e write about an actor who impressed you, write about a scene that had a strong effect on the audience.) I know this is a long shot, but any help would be fab!..Thanks love Jess

Look on the net, you'll find the mark scheme and you can find a site that'll give you A grade essays, I did my mock and got a B also, I completly screwed up the second question but the first one a did was a grade. I did well on that one because I sussed out the characted. Tried to understand what was going on in thier heads to justify the way I'd play them.

Good Luck!
