The specification states that answers should:
• be relevant – you don’t need to write everything you know about the text, only the things
that relate to the question
• be sufficiently detailed – it is better to give a lot of detail about a small part of the text than
trying to cover lots of different points
• be well structured – with a clear introduction which addresses the question and a clear
conclusion that returns to the question
• use effective vocabulary – including literary terms where relevant
• use well-chosen evidence/quotations to support points.
To gain a top grade, candidates should show an enthusiastic and critical personal response. The
best candidates write about the author’s methods and achievements, and will concentrate on
comment, not content. .
