Yeah should be calm to be fair. I answered the first question in Spanish and not English last year haha so ended up with like 78/110 or something. Should be alright though. I did my speaking today and hopefully got an A so i'm really pleased! I hope I can get like 95 in the AS, that would be super. Would set me up nicely if I bottle the A2 aha.

That's what I'm hoping for too. I think I could do well on the A2 paper it's just the translation could go either way

Nice! For me it's just knowing the vocab..especially on spanish to english aha. The specific stuff like parques eólicos instead of what I said in my mock: parques del viento aha

I just did my A2 speaking. It didn't go badly, but it's hard to judge how well it went. I need to focus on my AS retake now.
For the essay, do I literally do introductions, points for, points against, conclusion, using as many examples and opinion phrases as possible, linking it back to today's society?
