theres a big oppourtunty cost memorising for mod c because all that time can go to watse if the stimulus is whack and doesnt align with your prepareds. nevertheless, i still memorised a few creatives and discursives in case.
tbh ik it is late but it's still my weakest module because i can't stand doing anything on the spot argh. got any tips?

While time is definitely against you at this stage, for people who are thinking of memorising their essays for Paper 1 and 2, there's still plenty of techniques you can use which can help you remember them quickly.

  • Active dictation (literally just say your essay out loud multiple times, record them, and then just put in some earphones and listen to them, which should help it get drilled into your head)
  • If you are on the creative side, try making up an acronym or mnemonic to remember paragraphs
  • Start with one sentence, write it, then do the first two sentences, write it, then etc.

how are you guys memorising stuff for mod c?
so tips on writing in each form, their distinctive tropes, genres and their distinctive tropes, and quotes from 1-2 prescribed texts of each form
