How many poems from immigrant chronicles should you discuss in the belong essay?
I have been getting different answers
Is 3 in details and just mentioning the other 4 okay?

Do not bother mentioning the 4 in brief, it is not worth it, will not get you extra marks. They look for deep knowledge of the texts so you won't be able to provide sophisticated discussion if you refer to them briefly.
Just do 2-4 in detail.

Depends on the question. They might ask you for a certain amount of poems. I don't think it'll be more than three. Our trial question asked us to talk about three in detail and make reference to the others which was a bit awkward. Good luck!

I asked this on the advice line yesterday, and they said at least two is sufficient.
