i'm just using the logic that all the A2 revision we're doing is surely gonna benefit the AS as well....
Currently making more A2 notes and so so so bored....

It didn't come up last year and they don't tend to leave out a topic two years in a row, they've only done that once :smile:

They leave out topics for more than 2 years all the time. And have lots of health!

2015:sport, health, publicity
2014: Family, health, tech
2013 - Jun: holidays, Tv, cinema
2013 - Jan: health, fashion, marriage
2012 - Jun: Fashion, Tech, mariage
2012 -Jan: family, health, publicity
2011 - Jun: Tv, health, fashion
2011 - Jan: marriage, health, cinema

Hi, does anyone have the question papers, mark-schemes and listening files for the 2012, 2011 and 2010 Jan and June papers. Also do you have any example A* essays for the exam questions. Thanks

I went through all the dvds I own and found the ones dubbed in french... if you watch, listen and read the subtitles that come with them it's helpful for random vocab. For example, I just watched the desolation of smaug and learnt loads of random words that might just come up in listening/reading especially if cinema comes up, and it helps too with recognising different conjugations of verbs.

And you can watch your favourite films and say you've just had an intense 2 1/2 hour revision session :tongue:

I feel like it will be on friends or family, but i don't really know what kind of question it could be, since it can't be advantages/disadvantages.

I always use these:
Après Avoir <<infinitive>>
Subjunctive (maybe only one though)
Imperfect & Condition clause
Past Participle (or whatever it is called haha)
Future
Maybe pluperfect but I'm not always keen on it.

Not as much as I should've done tbh :frown:

But to be fair, I find it quite difficult to revise for French. I don't have the patience to listen through listening activities, Vocab revision is the worst and I already have learnt my essay phrases from when I did my speaking exam (which went tits up :frown:

)

You could say
Après avoir analyse les raisons pour lesquelles....

Sorry, I don't have the right accents on that! But is it not a way to get lesquelles into your piece

Correct me if I'm wrong
