Edexcel iGCSE French 9-1 4FR1

Did anyone just do the listening, reading and writing? How did you find it?

I found the listening to be... eh, but the topics in the writing were a GIFT FROM GOD.

I think you're talking about Edexcel GCSE; IGCSE doesn't have a translation.

Can we talk about listening? It was an absolute nightmare. If anyone says it was even remotely ok, youre lying. They say we need to know limited vocabulary, but then when these people speak, its like theyre regurgitating the entire french dictionary. Even the simple miltiple choice question (about work and studies or somethinf) was a nightmare. And this is coming from someone who gets a stars in their school exams. Im gonna be so disappointed if the grade boundaries arent lowered. The writing was pretty good. The grammar section was pretty easy and i breezed through reading.
I completely agree - I'm predicted a 9 but it seems unlikely now because listening was a catastrophe.
