    I'm guessing I'll be one of the very few who did Montegue then

    Nope 14% did montague which i think is fairly high seeing as he wasnt the most hotly tipped and he wasnt on the original paper. Still though at least he got a nice 80th birthday present :D:D

    Macbeth - Compelling drama - even though the other question suited me perfectly. Still don't know why I started writing out Q.2. Might never know.

    Comparative - Did CC - was ok, should have done theme/issue which was piss.

    Bishop - Interpreted the question literally and loked for 'questions' in her poetry like in 'Questions of Travel'. Needless to say I just about managed to get 2 pages out of that. Very annoying considering I could have written a book on Bishop at this stage.

    Overall, a complete cock-up in exam strategy, time management etc. Disaster. :D

    I had my trusty stopwatch with me for time management, for the whole 1 mark per minute thing... but I didn't give myself any room to maneuver as in a finished just on 70 mins for the comarative 60 for macbeth etc. between everything I only had 15 mins for the unseen and reading over time, I managed something reasonable and I only got a chance to read my keats essay because I thought it was the weakest part, it wasn't too bad but I probably have a few blunders in expression in the other answers...
