    OCR AS German Listening/Reading/Writing May 2012 GCE Discussion Thread
    This is a thread dedicated to the exam that we had today, German AS Listening/Reading/Writing!

    How did everyone find the respective sections, did we like the essay title?

    Thought it went really well, the last question (writing) what did everyone write? Do you know what marks we need to get out of 140 to get an A?

    Decent essay title I thought. I didn't manage to say everything I wanted to so that's a good sign I think! This was a resit for me and I wrote more than I did in the last exam so I'm pretty happy. I talked about how it's dangerous because of the possible distractions (friends making you drive fast, playing loud music, alcohol etc), but then said on the other hand plenty of people are sensible and it's not just young people, but old people too (hope the examiner isn't old haha).

    Only problem I had with this exam was on the third listening exercise, where you had to list four advantages about 'House exchange'. I wasn't sure if some of them were one advantage or two separate ones. So I wrote everything down, hopefully that's ok...
