No.
Memorising three essays if they questions the same as yours is good, but the odds of that happening are slim. You will go in, and if questions not the same, you will try use that essay anyway and it may bite you big time. Just remember points.

Seriously?
Just remember the key points, I never even bother to attempt to memorize an essay.
What you should do is remember the main key points with quotes to back it up.

Well if you want to memorise, break your time up, so do 5 hrs mod A, 5 hrs mod B, and 5 hrs mod C.

OD13...I'm confident they will either specify a speech, make us do 3, or have a second related text for Conflicting Perspectives (If you do that).

It will pop up somewhere there, so be prepared for three speeches and have a spare related text.

Also, I'm memorising all my quotes and structures of the three essays today. Since waking up (9:30) I have memorised my Blade Runner essay, which is extremely adaptable (They all should be). Two to go.

Just think! In about 26 hours you will never have to think about English again! Bust out the bonfire.

Yes remember key points! It worked for me in the trials because if you know the main points, you can answer any question!
