YES. ME.
Some of it anyway. The multiple choice ones were ok but the ones where you had to write in english and others in german were INSANE.
Everyone at my school found it hard too don't fret.

That bit was the WORST ever. I dont think anyone got that in the entire population.
I got the first questions wrong as well which really pissed me off but i couldnt remeber what the illnesses were...grr.

i wrote down a throat ache and ear ache i wrote geldkette for two of the spaces in that question, the woman was obsessed with it!
The questions i thought were okay were the towns questions, the doctors question, and the garden work question, and some other earlier section 2 ones as well but still i found it very hard...the last two excercises were depressing.
I didn't get a single mark on both those questions..
:frown:

there goes my chance of getting an A

Yea I think throat ache and ear ache was the right answer. I also wrote the wrong answer for the last bit but nevermind what can i do.

The towns question and the shop questions were fine, the garden work one i started getting a bit confused.
Did you tick that the dad was the one to mow the lawn? it seemed like a fathers job hahaha.

I understood on the last question that he didn;t understand much of the lesson, and his teacher said that he must practice his english...i think.

PS. You can afford to screw up 1 paper and still get an A*. There was someone in my school last year who was doing intermediate writing but still got an A* overall!

PPS. Of course no-one knows the grade boundries. It'll be deicded later...
