ppl........ one thing u guys have to know

whaever you write in literature unless and until it has got orginality u will not get ur marks.............refering to cliff notes or spark notes is fine..............

the thing is the ppl at the IGCSE centre has got a copy to all the literature works from spark and other websites if the cie finds we have done some plagered work we will not receive marks.............

my friends brother wrote his lit exam last year...........for a question out of 20 marks he used some of the resouces from cliff and sparkys.........which he by hearted................when his results came out he got 13/20 and they also specified stop using others.......... work..............

anyways lit isn't that hard like the other subjects.............it is just interpretation.......

...........ihope these reminders will be of great help..................

tbh with you- I haven't done any of them apart from Full Moon and Little Freida. But even that, I did like 2 years ago. LOL.


Good Luck mate.

Read over your stuff, and if you have notes, read over em too.
Im sure you'll be fine inshallah :)
