This is the Of Mice and Men and An Inspector Calls paper and lasts 1hour 30 minutes.
And...
Unit 2 Poetry Across Time, examples of which can be found here:

This is the Relationships poems and an unseen poem, the paper lasts 1hour 15 minutes.
In order to be successful in these exams you need to know all of the texts in detail. This does not mean you have seen the film or read the text in class. You should know detailed information about characters, events, themes and symbols. You should also know quotations and where to find them.
Begin re-reading the texts you have already studied now in order to ensure you are successful in the exam.
