yes but it depends on the question, if the question doesn't explicitly say to refer to it in your essay you can address it thematically through each block paragraph :rolleyes2:
a bit lost, so you don;t even need to analyse eta style if the question doesn't say refer directly to the extract? but otherwise u can just incorporate it into other paragraphs thematically?

so just prep 3 poems and whatever poems come integrate that extract within the prepared ones thematically or if lucky the prep ones will cover it???
yep basically! but in the example above, for 2012 that wouldn't have been a viable option. But i doubt they'll force a poem that way.. heh... :uhoh:

That's my strategy as well. Mine is Preludes+Hollow+Magi and if a 2020 style come up for Prufrock and Rhasopdy I probably can only analyse what is given + context so welp. If it's 2012 then I am cooked, but my teach said we're not expected to know all 5 apparently so I highly doubt we'd get a 2012-style ones.

i second this. pretty sure the syllabus changed to accomodate that exact claim

Yes. IIRC she said we are not supposed to know all 5 by heart, and recommends us to just roll with something along the lines of "3 by heart and other two a bit here and there"
However I am from quite a low-ranking school, so take it with a pint of salt. And she said it before the trials so it's in like July hence my memory is fuzzy.
