Yeah me too! it could be literally anything, they are usually open ended though. What grade are you hoping for ?


Have you sent me your email? I haven't got a message.
Hello :smile:

My cultural topics were France under occupation and Truffaut. I'm doing Truffaut for the essay.

I'm nervous for this exam considering how high grade boundaries were last year, I'm hoping that AQA don't do something like that again and lower them!

It's hard to predict what may come up, but I hope something to do with techniques or originality appears.

High B (1 UMS off an A) and I resat AS last week so hopefully that will make it a bit easier for me.

Ahh that's okay then, yeah because if you get an overall A at AS, you don't need to do as well at a2 for an A :smile:

Economics, wbu? Yeah, i didn't resit anything for Spanish and my a2 speaking didn't go to plan, so i am relying on scoring a high A on the unit 3 paper to pull my grade up. Just hoping for a nice essay though, what culture topics are you doing for Spanish?

Latin. What was wrong with the speaking? You will have done better than you think. I'm hoping for a good essay question too. I'm doing la casa de Bernarda Alba and la Guerra civil. You?
