My school offers english combined as well as english literature. I enjoy english in general but thought I might slightly prefer the language Alevel. However I've been told that it is not considered to be as strong an Alevel and english literature on its own by universities. Does anyone know if this is true? Thanks :D...

It seems about time that someone made a revision topic for this. So, does anyone have any useful revision tips? Any lovely phrases for the speaking exam? Or any questions? Also, if you're doing the literature section - which book/play? Or which area of history if you're doing that?...
