Of Mice and Men
Your essay answer on the novel is worth 30% of the final GCSE grade.
You have only 45 minutes (recommended) in the exam to write the answer, so you need to know the novel really well.
Questions are often about characters or themes (what the novel makes us think about, the subtle meanings); other possibilities include the role of nature and descriptions from the natural world.
