A Level Spanish Paper 3 Speaking Exam AQA

How many stimulus cards are we given? Is it 2? I heard someone say before that you can choose whether you do 2 AS Level cards, or 1 from AS and 1 from A2? Is this true? In that case I can just learn the topics from year 1 for the speaking test?

In the a level exam they give you two options that you have to choose from, one AS topic and one A level topic. You choose which one you want to do your speaking on. They’ll also never give you a card that’s linked to your IRP. For example, if you did your IRP on dictatorships in Latin America, you won’t be given a card from the Monarchies and Dictatorship module
Got my exam end of this week, I'm so bloody nervous man, anyone else got theirs soon or is it just that my school is stupid and forcing us to do it way too early?

muchas gracias 🤍 i hope i get inmigración o racismo, im quite gd at that and i can waffle on for ages haha
Tbh it’s not as daunting as it seems. As someone who did it last year, the best tip I can give is write out your questions first so u don’t forget and end up wasting time trying to think of one in the exam👍🏾

Hey, how was your examiner with the timings? Was the transition too slow between the card and the irp bc this is worrying me! As I know we only have the total 18 minutes which does not account for any shuffling things around, just going straight into the presentation after the card :frown:
