So I've left my study a bit too late for English (the devil's subject).

Hypothetical question... what is better to do in an exam situation? For AOS (Skrzynecki poems), just use one poem and one related text that is really strong and solid OR use that + a weaker 2nd poem and text.

Logic would think that the latter option would be smarter as I may be able to sap a few extra marks with a 2nd poem and related text even though it'll probably be a lot crappier.

However... I have this paranoia that I'll lose marks (or at least not gain as many initially) if I just throw in a poem and a related text that I suck at....
