    CHINESE AS LEVEL - Edexcel
    Hi guys, I'm sitting my Chinese AS Level this year. I literally have my oral tomorrow. But I have no idea what to expect for the "Written Response" exam (28th May). I've had pretty much no preparation from the school at all. Just one session where I did a practice oral. I'm kind of freaking out because I'm also sitting all my GCSEs this year (started today). Any help/ explanation would be great, thanks.

    Ahh I did it a few years ago Do they still do the research essay section? Preparing for that was so much effort...
