The average score for students across the country for this question is below 50%. That's not a joke, at least not a funny one. The reasons are obvious: AQA doesn't show teachers, students and parents what great answers look like, and teachers overcomplicate what they teach.

In this guide, I solve both problems. 24 answers, several at each grade, so you can see exactly how to score marks and improve your grade. And I've come up with a super simple method, which works 100% of the time!

The Mr Salles Method
  • State whether or not you agree with the statement. (It is easiest to mostly agree)*.
  • Give 20 explanations which show how the examples make us think or feel or predict that the statement is mostly correct.
  • Give up to 20 examples. (Often you will be able to give more than one explanation from one quotation, so you can get away with far fewer examples).
  • Write each example and explanation in one sentence, not a PEE paragraph. PEE paragraphs stop you giving enough explanations and getting enough points. They take too long.
  • Just say what the writer is doing. Only name a technique if you know it. “Imagery” or “emphasises” scores just as highly as “imperative verb” or “asyndetic list”. You don’t need to be fancy, just make sense. You don’t need to go looking for techniques, as everything will be “imagery” or used to “emphasise”. And the same, bog standard techniques will always come up, “simile, metaphor, personification, alliteration and sibilance”.
  • Use words like perhaps, might, could, may, however to show that you are evaluating.
    • *Later on you will see that only partially agreeing makes it easy to get extra marks, even if you don’t have enough points.

    We can summarise the method in one sentence:
    Write 20 points, including words like perhaps, might, could, may, however to explain what each one makes us think, feel or predict.
