i'd say on the canary islands but then again it's likely that my spanish is better than my english!

I'd say Wikipedia or Google is your friend. Oh I wish I were in Spain right now! It's so rainy here. :frown:

Listening was incredibly hard, reading okish.

Really? I did listening today and found it quite easy, but I'm on AQA. Reading and writing to look forward to on Thursday :eek:

I'm not worried about reading, but writing will be a killer!

I did Spanish GCSE OCR reading today. I didn't think it was too hard, a couple of words I didn't know in the jobs question but it was multiple choice so I can't have lost that many marks.

Yeah: who needs Latin?!! :biggrin:

And don't come with the "but Spanish, French, Italian- they all have Roman origins"! :p:

And I spot again a weirdish trait of the English schools system: GCSEs and A-Levels at once?!

GCSEs are normaly taken after year 10 and A-levels after year 13, aren't they? I figured out from his sig that he's doing A-levels at the moment- otherwise no uni applications. And I found it a bit odd that you can take "year 10 exams" in year 13. However, there's something like that in Germany, too, now I think about it. It's just called Latin beginners then.

Excuse the crappy Spanish but:

Este semana tengo 4 examenes, y tengo 6 en total (?). Creo que 4 en una semana sea muchos examenes para un estudiante de Durham - iTengo muchos stress!

Feel free to correct me! :biggrin:

Oooh ok, yeah I see what you mean now. But GCSEs are normally taken in Yr11. Some people do GCSEs and A Levels at weird times, especially individual ones. For example, kellywood :smile:

Bueno, pienso que es más peor en la universidad que en el colegio alemán: 3 examenes en una semana es el máximo.

Now that you mention it I remember the "GSCE Spanish self-taught" in her sig! :biggrin:

And year 11... now I see why other German applicants stated their year 11 results in their UCAS form and I always thought that it wasn't necessary because GSCEs were taken a year earlier.
