For languages (German,Spanish and French), I would recommend the app Lingvist! It might only be for Apple idk. It’s very repetitive but I like that, and it gives you some useful phrases&new vocab

aha, well if you 'only' get an 8, that still counts as an A* so it's really not that much of a slip! grades aren't the end of the world and they're extremely unlikely to ruin your life. plus, you'll probably be disappointed at some results and pleasantly surprised at others- it'll turn out fine, as long as you put lots of work in now (but don't overwork yourself either!) :biggrin:
