nah
No it’s not. I went from a 2 to a 8 in 2 years (now studying it at alevel then eventually a degree). What are your goals? to do well or just pass it...my advise is to learn how the exam is marked (what the teacher/examiner is looking for) and memorise set paragraphs for each topic, you can tweak them to the question

Hi everyone. I recently did my Spanish mock and finally realised I’m not on par at all. I got a 4 and 5 in my reading and listening. It’s two months before my official mock exam. Any tips on how to improve. Especially vocabulary?? Or is it too late??

it's not too late, I used quizlet to drill vocabulary, and repeat present + preterite verb endings over and over to make sure you know them. You could try listening to Duolingo Spanish podcast to immersing yourself, don't worry if you can't follow everything they say.

Hiya. I’m currently aiming for a 7 for my final exam but for my mocks AN improvement is fine. Maybe a 6 or a 5 in both. I’ll give that a go tho. Thank you. I do love languages but I struggle so much I feel aiming higher is unrealistic.
