You probably already know me from the German AS thread but I'll still introduce myself...
Exam board: AQA
AS grade and will you resit?: I got an A, and no.
What cultural topics are you doing and which specifically?: History such as the DDR, Berliner Mauer, etc. and Das Leben der Anderen
What A2 grade you aiming for?: I'm trying to aim for the elusive A*.
Bonus: How many people are gonna be in your class? 4 or 5 (depending on who drops the subject)
So basically, we're almost identical...
EDIT: In terms of preparation, I have prepared all my vocab for the 9 topics in the A2 course, I have began working through a workbook based on Das Leben der Anderen by doing translations. I am also refreshing my memory on both AS and A2 grammar and I am learning German phrasal verbs.
