French is a really tough A-Level- it is has the joint highest entry requirements with German,Spanish and Further Maths all requiring a Grade A.I'm not going to do French even though I got an A* because I know that it would be immensely difficult.At GCSE, you can't really say you speak French and really you don't know French even if you get an A* but at A-Level, you really have to be good-I think there is a Speaking exam I believe on the course and I would never have passed the unit if it wasn't coursework and you didn't get to memorise it all because once my French teacher got me to practise some French out of the blue and I could only do a few sentences and my answers were a few words.I have still added French and German onto my languages on Facebook, even though I can't speak them.

:colondollar: Haha yeah, I'm a bit obsessed ( just a tad):biggrin:
I'm insanely bored, I've recently come back from holiday for 5 weeks, but I've gone out to do 'something' almost everyday, but today absolutely nothing. The wait for results was keeping me going, but now I don't even know what to do any more.

I love languages. I got perfect scores in my exams for spanish and french which is cool. The languages I want to really study though are Spanish, French and Dutch - probs have to wait a while for Dutch tho.

I know its tough, but languages is my favourite thing everrrr! :awesome:
I did AS level french this year, so i know what its like.
I know broken french already, so thats a head start enough to keep me going throughout the year.

Not all sixth form/ colleges ask for grade A, most want grade B.

What is broken french? and how does it compare to French GCSE?You have a 55% chance of getting a D or below in the A-Level by the way and only a 14% chance of getting a B+.However, you got a high B so your chances are higher than the B grades listed.I have been looking at these great and helpful statistics and I want help in making them more useful for me so I could choose my A-Level options-http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?p=44204685&highlight= .

By broken French do you mean Creole? As I am from the Seychelles, and we speak the same language as Mauritius.

Join the club, I almost want to go back to school... almost.

Trouble is here there isn't much to do so if I want to see anyone or go into town I have to bike for a few hours to get there, and the weather so far has either been too hot, raining, or stupid windy.

I am literally stranded because of laziness :colondollar:

Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry:tongue:. Mechanical Engineering is my new goal. Doesn't sound as fun as Architecture though:frown:.

Wow that sounds so troublesome, I almost can't wait for school too but I know that once I get into the thick of it, I will regret even thinking that for a second.

I've just been listening to the same song on repeat, wow, what has life come to.

Haha yes, too many times I've wished for school and regretted it, so I refuse to do that...

Have a listen to our local rapper for a change: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADtADJOJZUU
