There are loads of different timings for english but this is the one I use!
Paper one:
10 mins reading the paper and choosing which a and b.
40 mins for comprehension
30 mins for part b
80 mins for essay and
10 mins to re-read

Paper two:
5 mins reading the paper and decide what you will start with ( I would recommend that you know the order of which one you will start with when you go in now but if a bad question comes up you may have to rethink it)
55 mins for hamlet
50 mins for poetry
65 mins for comparative
20 mins for unseen.
5 mins skim over paper
