    Have you all planned which your answering first, second and so on for tommorow?

    I'm doing Comparative first, single text, and then poetry. How about you?

    Comparative and poetry first, cos their mainly just reproducing(hopefully). Then Othello and finish up with the unseen poem. Should be grand.

    I'm doing ordinary level. Planning on comparative first, single text (othello) and prescribed poetry, then unseen poetry.

    Thinking of planning everything first, then Othello, Comparative, Poetry, Unseen, then going back to finish things if necessary at the end. Really need to get my timing right, I tend to go overtime quite easily...

    I'll probably do the Comparative first, then Othello, then Unseen Poetry, Seen Poetry.

    I left the Comparative til last in my mocks.. It being the longest, and having already written a fair bit on the other questions, I was just really tired at that stage. I find poetry the easiest to write about, anyway, so it's going last.

    Same, unless there's a tricky question - Hopefully not - I'd get it out of the way fairly fast, ugh, unseen poetry, hardly worth the paper it's printed on!

    I think I'll do whichever is the easiest first (Hopefully Poetry or Comparative!) I'm dreading Othello as I hate the character. NO! He IS NOT A TRAGIC HERO NOR DOES HE GAIN MY SYMPATHY.

    I have a LOT to write on Literary Genre so I may do that first and get it out of the way. I only did 2 1/2 pages on Derek Mahon in the pre and got 40+ so I'm not too worried. Quality > quantity. :)

    What I don't get about the quality>quantity thing is.. how do you fully explore a poem without it getting long? Maybe I just write in a very verbose way, but I could easily talk about a single poem for at least a page, so that's a 5 page essay straight away for a single poet. Bleh.

    Meh, you will be the one in August getting the A, not me, so it is okay. :)

    Good plan friend. I'm in.

    But I will prob do the unseen earlier because it is the ONLY place in P2 where I know that if I put in an effort I can get like a B in it. So write up 16ish marks for me wooties.
