Do your own mocks then read over your own work I started my English getting d's in mocks the read over my work realised is was absolute trash. For my actual assessments I've been getting b's.

Just try doing your best, you're competing against the whole country, prove to the examiner that you're not a shit waifu

I took Lit one year early, so last year and managed to get a C. I done OCR so I'm not sure how they do their exams, but we had to do PEEWE paragraphs. I was good at literature but the exam fucked me over as they asked shitty questions, so will probably be harder. Language is alright and is just PEEWE paragraphs too, but with 4 questions. The best thing to do is to get a mock paper online, and answer it. It's boring I know, but you'll get used to what they're looking for in the answer.
