National 5 French 2018/19

mine went really well, so I'm feeling pretty good about French. I've already completed quite a large portion of my final grade already, with the writing assessment we did and the speaking.

Honestly, French is my last exam and I'm not taking it next year. And if I'm honest I couldn't care less about it which I know is probably bad, but like honestly I don't care about French.

yeah, I've still got geography after french (I've got a two-week gap) but I am taking French next year. What subjects did you take at higher?

Actually I nearly took geography this year instead of French. I'm taking maths, english, human biology, chemistry and music x How about you?

To be fair if you don't need it then if you fail it doesn't really matter. Like I'm doing maths this year but for what I want to do at uni I don't even need to pass

yeah I'm dropping maths after this year... I've basically gone through school looking forward to the day when I could drop maths lol
I don't know what I want to do at uni though

S A M E!!! It's gonna be so much better next year when you can do more subjects you enjoy oml

1 month exactly until this exam (and 1 month until my exams end woop).
How is everyone feeling, any worries?
Honestly I'm not feeling bad about French because I don't really care. Like I think I know the job application, but the listening can sometimes be tricky.

im really struggling with reading papers tbh

Just do as much practice as possible. Look for the question in the text, for example :
How does Sonia describe her mum? (1 mark)

Ma mere est sympa et assez amusante.
(my mum is nice and quite funny)

So look for the word of the questions in the text because at Nat 5 they will put the beginning of the question in the text so you just have to look for the next words, to make it easier. So in this example in the text you would look for "my mum is" and then find the words. This is the case for "C/B level questions" they only make a few questions difficult.

Another tip don't try and translate while you read the passage, you'll just get confused and if you are running out of time just focus on the ones that you can see the answers for straight away. Hopefully you will have at least an hour for the reading if you get your Job App done quickly.

Does anyone have any ideas on what the unpredictable bullet points might be? Do you think they will make us ask a question (s)?
