Higher Spanish Pre-exam thread 2010

Don't think there is many out there who do higher spanish, but hum-ho. If there is anyone, how are you feeling about the exam? What did you get in your speaking? Feel free to post your thoughts and feelings and to put up some helpful phrases for personal response/directed writing.

Finally, someone whod does higher spanish! I got 25 in my speaking too. I'm fine with directed writing and for the personal response, I'm just learning all of the standard phrases: Creo que, en mi opinion all that stuff :P

Really hoping for a response about modern languages. As long as it isn't something mental it should be okay though... last year's was pretty weird.
