Exam Basics

Knowing your texts inside out: 
Make sure you have a good range of texts across at least three different media forms 
Watch them all again. Watch key scenes againand again, and again
Constantly link them postmodern features or as a reflection on our postmodern society
Discuss the key issues with parents, siblings, pets or anyone who will listen
Organise your notes – condense them down again and again
Create spider grams – texts to theories, theories to texts - like we did in class with the theorists at the centre, create detailed ones for your texts with key examples and links to pomo concepts
Memorise textual detail: examples,quotes and key scenes
Write practice essays
If you give them to me, I will mark them
Set up revision sessions between yourselves
