Any predictions for Un Sac de Billes or Les Choristes?
I think these papers are notoriously difficult to predict :/ you just need to know the text/film really well. I'd just recommend reading in depth chapter summaries and rewatching the film before the exam tomorrow.
im doing them both and im so ****. i legit never get more than a C and im half french the structure is so confusing
if you got an A* or high A in the other two papers i think you can still get an A overall even if you get a C in this paper, so don't worry yourself too muchim sure you did well in the other papers seeing as you're french !
does anyone have advice on forming a good introduction for the essay?
You could mention the name of the book or film, who it was written/directed by, and the year it was released. I don't know whether you do Un Sac de Billes but for example,
'Un Sac de Billes est un roman écrit par Joseph Joffo et publié en 1973.' and then outline the points you will make in your essay. For example, if the essay was about 'l'espoir' your introduction might look like: 'Un Sac de Billes est un livre écrit par Joseph Joffo et publié en 1973. Il y a plusieurs exemples du thème de l’espoir, comme les Justes et le rôle de Papa Joffo. Par contre, on peut aussi dire que ce livre nous offre une perspective pessimiste, décrivant de la violence ainsi que les conséquences pour ceux qui sont optimistes.'

Ah I'm sorry to hear that! How do you normally structure your essays?
usually 3/4 paragraphes with 4 moments or scenes where the theme in question is shown or if its a character ill usually talk about how they change from start to end
