    Masters in Paris...Please help!
    I am currently living in Paris on my year abroad and I would really love to come back to study after I have finished my degree in French Studies at The University of Warwick. I am really interested in doing my masters in perhaps translation, ideally at Université Sorbonne Nouvelle Paris III.

    The course I am keen on is: master professionnel: Traduction éditoriale, économique et technique.

    http://www.univ-paris3.fr/26253210/0...=1179926084097

    my questions:

    How easy is this to do with knowledge of only 2 languages? My french being only at BA level, I'm scared this course may be well over me- even if it doesnt ask french to be my mother tongue.

    Also if I were to do a third language here, what level would this have to be?

    Can anyone recommend any other courses/universities in Paris for me...I'm just scared that I am not skilled in french enough to go and study in Paris.

    To study at masters level in France you need C1 according to the European levels. So with a BA in French and a year abroad you should be fine
