This A* grade Robert Frost essay was completed by an A Level student – not in timed conditions.
She planned and thought thoroughly before writing, and edited the piece before handing it in. According to the mark scheme it received 23/25 (92%), which would translate to an A* grade at A-Level.
The piece can also be used as an example for any student studying Frost at any level. I have suggested some edits, which occur in bold throughout the essay.
