Mod C is the only module that I would willingly take english for

I just hate the subjectivity and how it's under timed conditions. If eng was liek ee2 it would be better

 

[f7eeting]

It's too late to do that plus memorise at this point. From what Study said it should not be too much of an issue at least for internals

it doesnt even have to be fully fleshed out. im legit going in with nothing but i think ill be fine since ive always gotten nearly full marks in creative without preparation (me saying this is going to give me bad luck, isnt it....)

 

[Study to success]

Realistically for a discussion you only need ideas from what I've come across. @Study to success I don't think we properly did discussions last year do you have to memorise stats and things?

the ones Ive read there;s no stats

The tecaher said to integrate both poems in one paragraph. So I'm gonna jsut have a broad topic sentences that applies to both. Then Im gonna do plath and then hughes. Then I'll do like another plath quote and then another hughes quote. And then continue this process for all 3 body paragraphs

[Study to success]

lowkey I haven't even read the other poems except the ones im doing and lady Lazarus. the other stuff I haven't touched. If they give us an extract on one of the ones I haven't read im screwed cause I don't even know anything about them

You should at least know what each of the poems are about so if you do get a poem you haven't read, you can ramble about the general ideas of it and not completely fail.

yeah maybe If im bothered. I just love playing gambles and being bold like this which probably shoudkbn't be doing. prelims I studied 2 out fo the 4 poems and I got lucky cause they told us to refer to a poem which thankfully I studied. But since I have like 6 poems prepared surely I'll be fine

but since im unbothered and also it's good practice for u, What's the shot and red about

I swear after every term of eng I get lazier and lazier. I swear it's cause of my replacement teacher

The shot is basically about Hughes describing Plath as 'a bullet' fired by the death of her father which couldn't be controlled. Hughes uses this argument to deflect blame about his role in Plath's suicide from himself and claim that he's also a victim of her father (Otto) instead of a perpetrator.

Red was the final poem in Birthday Letters and describes how the colour red (representative of vitality, danger, death etc.) dominated every aspect of Plath's life (physical, literacy etc.), which Hughes uses to reflect on Plath's creative and psychological identity. At the end, Hughes mentions that "Blue was better for you", basically admitting that he never fully understood Plath as a human being.

Everything here is my interpretation of the poems and should probably be taken lightly
