This task evaluates your skills of analysis. There will be questions focussed on two unfamiliar text extracts; there will also be one question which asks you to both compare and contrast these two texts (this means looking for the similarities, as well as the differences). It includes a set of lower-tier, short-response questions that primarily focus on criterion A. There is also an extended response question that is assessed using criteria A, B, and D.
As well as showing you examples of past questions, these activities will help you to develop focussed responses, as well as ensuring that you use your time appropriately.
Similarities, differences, and the critical analysis of stylistic features used in different literary and non-literary texts; this question is challenging! Click here for guidance!
