Context Piece Examples

Hi guys,

having received various conflicting pieces of information, I'd just like to clarify something. In the context piece, do the examiners look down on pieces which use literary texts (I try to use classical literature instead of just fiction) such as Macbeth or Atonement instead of real life examples?

I would strongly suggest moving from an external text like Macbeth into a real world example like a person. This suggests sophistication!
