Is it possible they could give us an extract for both mod A and B?

Also didn't they repeat a few prescription points through the years for comm mod? So its not super likely we'll get something they've never asked before

u definitley have a point! I was thinking that too. ppl are just more bent on it because we're the second last year being tested on this syllabus, so nesa might want to test it for the sake of it

This is a guess (let’s see how good my intuition is)

Common Mod: Inconsistencies and anomalies question
Mod A: General question no extract
Mod B: Extract question (for Eliot, Magi or Prufrock)
Mod C: 15 mark imaginative or discursive and 5 mark stimulus question OR reflection

My Predictions:

Common Mod (Same as everyone else's tbh): Paradoxes, Anomalies and Inconsistencies (Only part of of rubric which hasn't been asked)

Mod A: Extract (hopefully not like 2022 Mod A, at least for TT and HS)

Mod B: Extract (poem specified, my guesses are Preludes or Rhapsody as Prufrock is too obvious imo)

Mod C: 15 Mark Imaginative only with 5 mark stimulus short answer type (like 2022)

ok wait, if mod b specified an extract from magi, does it matter that i talk about magi only in my last paragraph. like what if the marker thinks i'm not going to address the extract and marks me down. like how am i meant to talk about magi at the start bc my essay shows the progressive nature of his suit from preludes to hollow to magi?

yeahhhh I’m really curious about that too I wanna make it my second para so it starts off good and ends off good since I’m doing 3 bodies and hopefully they would ignore how bad the second para is 🤣

if we get extracts for both mod a and b + creative w reflection, we’re actually the unluckiest cohort…

welp at least scaling will be great 😊 (prayers)

Yep can someone like analyse all the past extracts theyve given so we can predict which poem pls it better not be magi
what would you say the chance that they mandate preludes this yr? its the only poem i havent got thorough analysis for and im rlly worried especially since its the most formally interesting one... but its not rlly contextually important for eliot so i dont have to worry... right....

I’d say prepare for every poem.. the only one that is highly unlikely is hollow men bc it’s the only one that has been assessed. I feel like they’d choose a more popular poem like prufrock or rhapsody rather then preludes but than again it’s so important to prepare for all of them because you can expect anything

What are the chances we get a visual stimulus for paper 1 section 1??
I don’t think they’ve ever done that before for advanced.

And what about a visual stimulus for mod c? I will cry in happiness if that happens
