What exam are you really dreading?
For me its French speaking, just sitting there face to face with my teacher. And what's more is that I haven't even prepared the answers! :redface:

Why don't you just prepare your answers now then? Any exam you're worried about now, there is still time to prepare for.

*a slightly better title might have ellicited more repsonses.

Maths, definitely! Also Physics, although not so much as Maths.

Yeah, the Physics I am doing at the moment is really hard.

French speaking exams really aren't that bad once you get in the room, it's just all the psyching yourself up beforehand.

Now that I have an AS French speaking exam in 6 days, I can look back on the GCSE one as being absolutely nothing.

I was trying to hep you make the thread more appealable to users , which as a consequence will get you more help in answering your question.

Ok . A proper response, French speaking is hard , get off TSR and prepare some answers to the questions.

PM me if you want any useful phrases to use in your French speaking, I have loads of them and no doubt it will help me to remember them for my own speaking exam too. :smile:

My question was not "What should I do?".
It was what exam are you really dreading?
Clearly you have some problems with understanding English.

Ok the exam I am most dreading is, the English Lit synoptic paper , unit 6. It involves **** loads of background reading to be done, much of which I haven't yet.

What I would advise is not to actually learn the answers to the questions, but to get a rough idea of what you're gonna say. Just practice speaking french in a casual tone and you should be fine.

Presentation - You should learn this stuff until you can recite it quickly.

Also, why do people actually learn the answers to the questions asked in the conversation part of the oral? It is most likely that you will jump from question to question in different topics in no order, like in a conversation, so why waste your time? (If you're asked 'where did you go last summer', you could get an idea of what you're gonna say, such as 'I went to spain with my family for three weeks and etc' but learning that to the point that you can recite it is, well, I think it's stupid)

P.S. What I have said in this post only applies to the conversation part of the oral, unless stated.
