Notes for literature

• · Make sure you complete the paper on time.
• · If you cannot finish the paper, move on to the next question first.
• · Manage your time well.
• · Do not complete the paper very quickly as it means that you have done very less for the paragraphs.
• · Make sure your paragraphs are of good length because the longer the paragraph without a lot of mistakes, the higher marks you get.
• · Make sure you elaborate well on each point
• · 1 TEAQ should be the length of ½ a foolscap. If you have a paragraph lesser than ½ a foolscap, most likely you will fail.

ADVICE FROM MR M

Here are some helpful notes for paragrah-writing for TEAQ. Edit them for your use - Don't just memorise them. Note that Bongo and Zebra are fictitious poems but the structure of a paragraph can be seen. Average word count for a 5-paragraph TEAQ essay is 150 words each. For 3 TEAQ paragraphs, a good 200 words per paragraph should get you to fill at least one side of a page.

Good luck for the Lit exams.

YOU MUST WRITE ENOUGH TO PASS - ;)
