"AS Level English Exam"

I've got 3 hours of English exams this afternoon and if I get lower than a B, I'm rather in the proverbial sheet, as it were.

*crosses fingers*

I'm mostly fine analysing texts, I just dont like the teories we have to apply - it makes it very sciency and I dont really care much for science.

If anyone else has the same exam coming up you can check out my exam notes at Kyznet.da.ru

What did they ask?

The first paper was sorting texts and I messed up one of them because I thought it was an advert until I sussed it was actually a CD cover.

Then I ran out of time comparing an email, answering machine messages and the cd cover and only did about 6 pages.

The last paper was better, I had to analyse how gender was expressed in a column of FHM and how power and authority were conveyed by a school letter.

last paper *nods*
first paper *shakes head*

I just did an AS english combined desk study re sit.......

I did the same exam, did you not realise that on the CD cover it did say at the top that it was a CD cover?
