i’m on C/D and i need a B i don’t know how ima do this
Same😭
I feel you cause literally same😭
im on a C and need an A 😭
I got a D somehow on my last mock exam, I put so much time and effort into to it so it was frustrating, but progress is progress as I got an E the time before that. Having said this... I need an A for the uni course i want to do...
thank you I NEED this. I need to get my B to an A for Warwick and I don't know where to start with merchant's tale. I'll try the mindmap technique and the context research ideas.
aw no worries! with merchant's tale, don't worry about trying to memorise whole lines, just remember certain words or phrases that stand out, like i remember "hooly boond" and stuff like that 🤣 and just embed those quotes into your sentences, brief knowledge about chaucer's other famous tales is beneficial, i remember i referenced the wife of bath's tale in my essays for eg
@@marguerite_hua thank you that's really useful
wish me luck! got my lit paper 1 tomorrow
aa good luck!! i'm rooting for you :)
oop just realised you sent that yesterday, hope it all went well!
the Shakespeare section was really tough but the comparison questions were quite nice so I feel somewhat confident on that section
This genuinely helped me. I am also sitting an OCR English lit exam in May and June. I’m doing Richard III, Rossetti Poems, A Handmaid’s Tale and 1984. I am struggling so bad and ironically enough I want to get focused mid-April too. If you could please elaborate on the revision plan because I have no idea where to start. I took notes of your tips and plan to make it happen, because I get D’s, E’s and C’s, I really want a B and I’ve been so stressed thinking my life is over because I can’t memorise anything.
hey!! okay so on your first day, dedicate that to sorting out what you need to go over with each text, for each text ask urself these questions: do u need to reread a text? do you need to memorise quotes for specific themes? do you need to find critic quotes for this text? make rough notes of ur answers to these questions, and then on the next day, just focus on one text and revise that, and the revision depends on what you realised you needed to do for it on the first day. so for coriolanus i spent the first day reading it a few times, picking out key quotes i'd remember and listing these on a google doc, then the next day i would sort these quotes into themes so that i would remember them better, so that it's not just a long list, so that it's actually in a logical group, you have to be v specific in your plan so that future you has less work to do in tryna figure out what you meant by this!!
once i was done w coriolanus, then i would start revising another text and repeat the same process, the best thing is to focus on one text at a time, if you want to pm me, message me on insta! it's marguerite.pan
@@marguerite_hua Ok! thank you! I appreciate this.
Hey! I know you sent this a year ago but I’m really struggling on Richard III, do you have any high mark essays you could share please, thanksss :)
This vid helped me so much, I’ve got the same comparative texts as you!! I’m just wondering, to be a pain lol, what were the main themes you focused on for each of the texts? I’m struggling to stick to a theme to revise quotes for:(
Thank you 🤞🏼 xx
aww firstly best of luck for ur exams!! i guess for the american texts, my themes were love/marriage, dreams/ideals, greed/corruption, class/money
and for the medieval texts, it was similar-ish, love/marriage, deceit/lies, greed/corruption - there’s definitely another theme i’m missing, you got this!!!
@@marguerite_hua thank you so so much I cant even begin with how much this has helped along with your vid!!💖 needed this🤞🏼
This audio is perfect u should 'comflex' (cringe but ty again)❤
