Half the poems on your course are by poets who are also on the HL course. The other half are prescribed only for OL. Four poems will appear on your paper in June. Two will be from the list also prescribed for HL and two will from the list only prescribed for OL. You only need to answer on one of the poems on the day; therefore, chooose a side to focus on. Revising 36 poems is a bit silly when you can get away with doing 18.
