ok, i would just like to get this right for the trials. how many related text do we need for each section

belonging essay: 1 prescribed text and ? related text
module A: 2 stories from the one author
module B: 2 poems from the one poet
module C: 1 prescribed text and ? related text

is that correct, please fill in the question mark as im not sure how many there should be. is module A and B correct where we just use two poems/stories that we are already given?

thanks

You should probably ask your teachers they could be more specific.

But it's normally at least two related texts for AOS and Module C. Cause sometimes they ask for related textS, which means you should have two. Some people like to have three/four so they have greater leverage in fitting the question.

And also, you shouldn't really prep for two poems...what if they specify. ANd normally people talk about three in their essay.

Generally, you'd survive with one related text but it's probably best to have one very good one with your set text and a second related text in the case that they actually do ask for two related texts.

have at least 2 for AoS and Module C. You'll usually only be asked for 1 but potentially you could be asked for 2. Preferably have 2 which you know extremely well just in case the question suits one of them better.

Usually, two related texts for any module. I assume you do advance? I can only say from the standard point of view where you do two related texts for belonging, module a & c, and at least two poems in depth.

You need to know all poems from your prescribed poet, incase they set a specific poem - Additionally, it's better to know 4 in great depth.
