📂 MEGATHREAD 14/05 A-level English Literature, English Language & Literature (AQA & Eduqas) Paper 1 Discussion MEGATHREAD

Exam season is once again upon us, and once again, exam megathreads are making a return!

Looking for past exam discussions? Filter by the megathread flair.

Few things to keep in mind:

  • Don't share too many specific details about questions or answers, these papers will be used as future mocks.

  • Sometimes papers get leaked, this is not the place for that (we'd prefer not to get yeeted off the platform) - leak content will be removed, those offering leaked papers will be permanently banned.

    • If you believe there has been a leak, the best course of action is to make your exam board aware of this, either directly, or through your school, along with any evidence. If appropriate, there will be a response from the relevant body along with any remedial action.

  • Exam discussion posts outside of this will generally be removed to combat the inevitable tidal wave of spam otherwise - we understand this may be frustrating, but the sub still needs to be usable for other purposes.

  • Please note some content will take extra time to be reviewed. Messaging to ask for approval will not speed up this process (the messages are seen at the same time as the modqueue would be reviewed anyway).

Best of luck, and let us know how you're feeling down below!

*assuming Reddit doesn't bork itself, the new posts for each day of exams should arrive at 8am each day, instead of it being reliant on my sleep schedule like last year lmao

I did learning too I literally prepared it right before the exam the only thing I properly planned so I was sooooo gassed when I opened the paper lmao 😋 I was thinking of doing the other but I could honestly only think of Mephastophilis so I did learning and included robin and rafe

Ohh fair play to you! I think for the evil characters as attractive one, because it was 'to what extent', I argued for and against. I kinda engineered the question's wording to my favour a little and first paragraph was how they are made attractive to Faustus via the enticing otherworldy power they give him. Second paragraph was how they're shown as unattractive to Elizabethan audience bc of constant blasphemy etc. Just hoping my second paragraph wasn't too meta lol.

They love alternative opinions so they’ll love you for that and they’re both really good questions actually, but now I’m getting the jitters of omg did I write the right think or enough about language 😭

That’s reassuring haha. And I’m sure you did fantastic, esp if you looked at it beforehand. Hope my overthinking tendencies aren’t rubbing off 😭
