Hello

From what I was told, for English, the essays and the texts are on Enviromental issues, with essays that where hard enough where you wrote about Enviromental issues. Oh and Part B's one is a Letter.

On Paper 2, question was on Hamlet - 2 Questions (one on Character which he recommended we do, and the other is General which he said was hard). There is General Vision and Viewpoint & Comparitve. On the Vision & Viewpoint I was told it was ok to discuss whether or not it was a Pessamistic or Optamistic view.

Poets he said learn the two female (Dickinsion and Boland) and you will be ok!

Anybody got info on German/Computers/Construction Studies/Home Economics?? Cheers!
