Thank you for all the messages and comments in response to which find some useful links for the imminent exam:
For Angela Carter there is an interesting recording of a conversation with Helen Jolley:
There is also an interesting selection of articles on Angela Carter at the following link of a Guardian page:
On the following there is a series of rather apt quotations, including this one which could be used for a selection of the short stories, but particularly for 'The Bloody Chamber':
“In the mythic schema of all relations between men and women, man proposes, and woman is disposed of.”
I have been asked to give notes about the A2 paper in a similar way to those that I published on the AS; well I am happy to do so, but the A2 is a lot less complicated than the AS in regard to the AOs. All the Assessment Objectives are equally weighted on every essay that you need to do, so all 4 need to be included in all that you write. Also, you only need three texts as whatever you choose to write about for the A question can also be used in the B question.
There is an excellent site which goes into even more detail about the exam and gives several incredibly useful resources that I would urge you to look at; (Guinea Pig Lover in particular) the link takes you to page 9, but do check out the rest to hopefully answer any more queries that you may have:
