    Specific Poems for Paper 2

    Yeats' poetry, how many poems?

    Easter 1916 epitomises Yeats' most pressing themes, nationalism and romantic love. I'm doing 3, Irish Airman, Wild Swans and Easter. But I'm gonna do some last minute prep for others just in case later today

    Caesar

    Do you lose marks for having 2 related texts?

    If you could do two texts, and you knew them well enough to make credible analytical statements, then you should've had enough to run on one related. It's pretty shocking how many people don't read the questions, jeeeeeeeez. Shows a lack of preparation, heheh...

    Do you lose marks for having 2 related texts?

    English isn't about giving some prepped essay, it's about thinking about the texts and writing on the spot. I can't see you being marked down, but you were wasting your time
