La Sociedad Española

Sorry for the atrocious Spanish I'm really worried about my GCSE oral exam, which is on the 9th - I always go to pieces during oral exams. The higher tier role plays are really hard - the topics are things like applying for jobs, witnessing a shoplifter, discussing the results of a survey with a friend, etc. And as for the questions, don't even go there. Our teacher gave us a solid A4 sheet full of questions for every single topic, and though some are straightforward, some are really nasty and I don't know how to answer them at all!!

I was asking a fair question, but feel free to take your abnormally sized head out of the 'room', if you can fit it through.

I'm majorly worried about my Spanish oral too. I have 5 pages of A4 questions to learn the answers too and I haven't even started yet - I've been too busy doing the same for French.

I've never been to Spain before, but if I did study Spanish at uni, I'd want to spend my 3rd year in Madrid or on a beach somewhere...

Does Barcelona have beaches? I've only been in the city itself
Don't go to Malaga for beaches, they're un poquito skanky (the sand is a really weird grey colour that sticks to everything, and the sea is quite dirty there depending on the day).
I miss GSCEs, oh for the sweet lack of revision

Quiero entrar en la Sociedad Espanola también. [Don't know what's 'to join' in Spanish]. He estudiado el espanol desde 3 anos, pero mi profesora no es my bien. Espero que puede mejorar mis conocimientos este verano.


[Paddy, you got the idea for this soc from the German one, didn't you?! ]

Hmmm, not actually sure what 'to join' would be, maybe alistar/enrolar/inscribir
Claro que puedes alistar, espero que disfrutes en tu afiliación nueva
Hay una sociedad alemana? No lo supe

Lack of revision? You haven't seen me then?

La sociedad frances? Si

Please, you don't need to revise for GCSE I only really revised properly for Geography and History, and History was my worst result (although that's due to having an idiot for a teacher).


*cough* sociedad francesa *cough*
Only founding members may make mistakes, which will be intended to test the rest of you.

Grrr I haaaaaaaaaate revision!! Uni had better be worth it

Lo siento.... . Damn languages and adjectives and nouns agreeing...

I'm seriously revising for my GCSEs, especially Science, Media, Maths and languages. Edit : Saw your sig

Noooooo you can't revise for Languages/English/Maths! Well escept for vocab/formula learning, but that's easy.
What about my sig

Don't be angry. I posted asking what your GCSE grades were, but I saw them in your sig

Why can't I revise for Languages/English/Maths ?

No it wasn't an angry smilie, 'twas a suspicious one. Ah, that explains.
Well because they're the kind of subjects which it is not possible to revise. I didn't even try to revise English, I just wrote out all my notes into my books (but I hear you're not allowed do that anymore).
I especially didn't revise Spanish or French, mainly because you can't revise languages. The only thing you can do is brush up on your grammar knowledge and look over some vocab. (Latin is different, but trust me you don't want to be doing Latin).
I didn't revise for Maths purely because I detested Maths and had resigned myself to scraping a C at GCSE (do not know how I got the grade I did though)
But you should practise your Orals, it will give you more confidence.

Yeah, I've been practising my orals, but I haven't started learning any vocab yet and the exam is a month away......

I don't know how I'm gonna revise English. Might as well just fail
