english advanced and extension i really dont recommend rote learning essays i see a lot of people doing that. a lot of people ik dropped marks in trials bc they rote learned all their essays and didn't stick to what the question actually asked. memorise your arguments and how they're connected to each other -- strip your essays down to the BONES and then remember that because then you can change your arguments to fit the question. it depends on what your prescribed texts are but if youre doing eliot for mod b for example the overarching argument is totally consistent no matter the question you just have to change the language you use and maybe the way you present it. other than that you just have to do loads and loads of practice papers and make sure you can handle curveball questions on the fly. being able to respond to a difficult and unexpected question with a good argument is really important
