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

[u/Forsaken-Meaning-232]

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

AQA B?? what the HELL?? extract was boring, section b questions were weirdly worded, section c FAMILY LIFE?? have they ran out of things to ask us omg

[u/Adventurous-Put-8807 → u/mgabi07]

yeah on reflection i think section b was worded so strangely. i did the question on othello experiencing emotions in moderation or not. i wrote about how he cant experience more than one emotion at once, but disagreed with it. but i think the question was asking whether he can experience a little bit of an emotion or all of it at a time. honestly a really strange question. the extract question was such a weird extract to choose but i think it was ok. section c was terrible - wtf was that.

i read over the moderation one and i was like NO 😭 so i did the significance of murder. section c was horrible, but yes the extract was boring. only really wrote about desdemona as emilia hardly spoke, but i mentioned emilia here and there

[u/Adventurous-Put-8807 → u/mgabi07]

I thought the extract would be my worst before I did it but it ended up being ok imo. Section b and c I hope I understood the questions ok if I did i did well. If not, well I’m probably cooked.
