EN1107 Exam FAQsHow long will the exam last?
TWO hours FIFTEEN minutes, including 15 minutes reading time, during
which students may write notes.
How many questions should I answer?
Attempt ONE question from EACH of the two sections.
Section A will provide 4 passages – two from each novel in Block 3 – and a
question to guide your answer. Choose one passage.
Section B will have a choice of 6 questions. Choose one. You have to
compare any two texts which you have been taught this term.
Can I write about the same text in the exam in Sections A and B?
Yes. But you must not say the same thing in each answer.
Can I write about the same text in my 20% essay and the exam?
Yes. But you must not say the same thing in each answer. Moreover, you
want to demonstrate to the examiners that you have studied a range of texts
for this course. If you write about the same text 3 times, not only is there a
danger of overlap, but it might look as if you have not read all of the works
this term.
Should my answer to section A have an argument?
Yes. See the Advice on Close Reading and Preparing for the Exam
Can I take books or dictionaries into the exam?
No.
Should I quote from the novels?
Yes, if you can. Or at least refer to specific passages. Avoid empty
generalisations.
Should I quote from critics?
Yes, if you can. If you cannot remember their precise words, provide a
paraphrase. Avoid empty generalisations such as ‘critics have argued that’.
Which critics? What kind of critical perspective did they employ?
