Rober Frost’s ‘The Road Not Taken’ Model Answer / Example Essay > A grade at AS/A Level
This is an essay which one of my students completed recently on Frost’s ‘The Road Not Taken’, answering the question 'Comment closely on ways in which the poem explores individuality.'
It’s marked using the CIE / Cambridge Literature Mark Scheme (9095), but this is a high quality essay that would likely achieve an A grade were it written for similar exam boards - OCR, AQA, WJEC, CCEA, Edexcel etc. It covers context and critical approaches via an examination of alternative interpretations.
It may also be useful for the more ambitious GCSE level students who are looking to push their analysis and essay writing skills further.
