Okay.

I have done Michael Longley and John Motague in detail, and I am confident with both. I am hoping one will come up. I have covered Bishop and Walcott but I didn't do enough. Should I cover one of those in detail again?

If I was to answer a question on Bishop, how would I do it?

What are the key points that I should mention about her poetry?

Also does anyone have any sample essays on teenagers or any common topics that come up, just to get the gist of them for backup.

Thanks a lot, it would be huge help if you could answer any of those.
