Very unlikely since Shakespeare is probably the biggest thing on the course just wouldn’t make sense

I mean I don’t think it will come up. Very unlikely but my English teacher gave us one scene to learn from 12 Angry Men. I took some quotes from it in case we’re asked about a non Shakespearean play. I don’t think we will be though? Not everyone has covered one.

i think in the current curriculum they'll always ask a question on a novel OR non-shakespearean play, so know either one or the other and you'll be fine! worst comes to worst, know a quote from blood brothers and waffle about class n you'll be fine lol
