OCR A-Level English Literature - H472 Past Paper 分析

June 2025 H472/01 and H472/02 together require 120 marks of work over 300 minutes: one two-part Shakespeare answer, one pre-1900 drama–poetry comparison, one unseen appreciation and one prose comparison. Charts use the five required response units, not the sum of optional questions; chapter totals therefore describe transferable skills across every valid route. Difficulty and accessibility are estimates. The attachments contain mark schemes, not an examiner report, and all five unseen extracts are removed from the supplied question paper.
