    Just wondering what poets you think have the strongest chance of coming up this year on the Lc?

    I can tell you from experience that there's absolutely no way to predict who will come up. You're better off not worrying about it. The more you try to outwit the examiners, the more unpredictable they make it. I think an Oxford study came out saying the LC is ridiculously unpredictable.

    Just cover 4-5 and hope to God you get lucky.

    Yeats

    I wouldn't completely bank on Yeats coming up. It happened one year when everyone thought Seamus Heaney was going to come up because of his death that year and he was a well known poet and all that but he didnt come up on the poetry he came up in the unseen section instead. Everyone expected him in the poetry but turned out he didnt come up at all in that section of the exam. I'd know him well but have backups just in case another repeat occurs this year.
    This is the advice my teacher gave us so :)
