Unit A2 2

The passage from the text will be provided in the examination paper for Unit A2 2 Section A: Close analysis of a prose extract. This is now a 'closed book' exam and any edition of the set texts can be used to carry out examination practice.

There will be no alternative texts provided for this section of the examination for Summer 2010 to ensure demand across the paper remains equal. Should texts be replaced in the future you will receive a circular at the appropriate time.

Circular confirming all the above information.
