    Guys, please help me out.
    I need ALOT of help with the englishLC ...

    what are the tips and guide to do well in it? (B1 or an A2)
    What is the format of the paper? Would it affect ALOT, if my english isn't great. If so, what are the practices i need to improve so i'd be sure i'll do well in the actual leaving cert. In school exams i usually get like... 65-70%, but i want to bring the grade up.
    I'm doing higher level English
    For paper II I'm studying:

    *Single text - Macbeth
    *Comparative -How many miles to babylon, My sister's keeper and a film (dont know what it is yet....)
    *and poetry... which i dont have a clue of what going on... what tpyes of questions would they ask when it comes to poetry?

    and for paper I, say it's not the best choice to do an essay right... if so, what is the best choice for composition?

    Any help would be high appriciated. Thanks a million!
    -KR.

    Read books. Ones that are not on the course.
    Read short stories.
    Read diaries.
    Read stuff written in different centuries.
    Experience different styles of writing.
