The 2008 set play is The Tempest and the set scenes are: Act 3, scene 2, whole scene AND Act 4, scene 1, lines 139-262

 

From 2003 the SAT in English has been quite different. Do not listen to what an older brother or sister tells you! There was a further change in 2005: the two writing tasks were both amalgamated into one writing paper.This is a summary list of the main changes:

  • 3 papers, not 2
  • new set sections for Shakespeare and a new requirement to refer to both sections in your answer
  • no extension paper but level 8 still available for the TA (teacher assessment) of your work in Y9
  • there are a long writing task and a short writing task;
  • your results will include separate levels for your reading and your writing skills
