Specify poems? (1 Viewer)

[d-alarmclock]

I was just wondering whether examiners can specify which poems to write about for Module C, regarding Ted Hughes Birthday Letters?

(If they do, I'm basically screwed)

They could I think but its unlikely...

My teacher told us they wouldn't, but they can.

Are you studying all the poems just in case??

That's highly unlikely as I think they only do that in Module B. However, I would recommend having a condensed understanding of each poem just in case and understand the links between the poems (and perhaps draw those links in your essay), as this shows you've considered the poems as a whole (as the collection is the set text, not the individual poems) and understand how they relate to each other.

Nothing is stopping them, but irrc the 9/11 website is a prescribed text for module C, and it is rather difficult for the Board to specify something in this case without exceedingly limiting a student's discussion of the text.
