AQA AS German May 2014?

Just wondering how does one go about structuring a language essay? I've never really been good at it and wondering if anyone had any advice? Thanks

Point example explanation xx
So nervous for this tomorrow!!
Whatever you do, make sure you explicitly answer the question in order to get your marks on content - that's what I've learnt anyway

So I would write like your reaction to the question in the intro and then talk a bit about whatever the question is

Then write around 3-4 paragraphs depending on what the topic is but make sure they're well planned

Then conclude with maybe your opinion and a general summary of what you've said

Sorry it's not great advice because it really does depend on the question but I hope that's of some help, Viel Glück!

What even was that paper?!? :s-smilie:
How did everyone find it?
I thought the essays were fair
The reading question on holidays where you had to fill in the gaps was a bit strange though.

OK, maybe it was just me but I found it defo the hardest paper I ever took... I really hated the essay questions, and just generally thought it to be an incredibly dull paper...
It was so hard

I wasn't sure whether to do work life balance or music
-ended up going with music
I think grade boundaries will be fairly low. Perhaps 88 ish for an A
Anyone want to discuss answers?
What did people get for the grammar section?

Any in particular?
I'm struggling to remember the questions, I was hoping someone could jog my memory. I seem to remember I put 'en' endings on for most of the adjective endings :s-smilie: I was really rushed at this point, as only had 40mins left for the essay
