English Language and Literature

Assessment

The course has three assessment elements. There are 2 final exams: • Paper 1: 3 hours • Paper 2: 2 hours 30 minutes. These are worth 80% of the final grade. There is also a coursework element, which counts for 20% of the final grade. This part of the course allows some flexibility and choice, as it is an independent project, comparing a literary and a non-literary piece of work.
