This document provides information about the coursework and written exam portions of an A-Level English Literature course. For coursework, students must write a 3000-word essay comparing three texts on a shared theme, which is developed into a question and approved by the exam board. The written exam consists of two sections - close analysis of two unseen extracts from different genres, and comparison of two more extracts using knowledge of the theme of love through literature. Students are expected to read widely on this theme from various time periods, genres, and authors for the exam.
