The gap fill was awful I think the rest of it was ok, the second part of the burkha question and the translations were slightly confusing though. I'm hoping the mark schemes are relatively generous e.g. rephrasing answers from the text

translations were tricky- had to miss out “revues” and i didn’t know what hills or candles were for the english to french. gap fill was a nightmare, and the summary question on burqas was hard too- i just know i’ve lost loads of marks.

I agree! the burkini questions felt like I was just repeating myself! And there were a few words in the translation that I didn't know but I think that's a given. I did a lot of rephrasing and using synonyms so I'm hoping I've gained marks there! Proud of you :>
How’s everyone feeling for paper 3?

Is any doing either No et Moi or Les choristes for paper 3? If so they can helo me with essay themes/ideas/analysis? :smile:
How did everyone find the paper today ?
omg i just did this as a past paper, i'm glad everyone had the same problems as me, it makes me feel less alone lol. the use of the past historic in the gapfill threw me off. and with the burkha question, it felt like they were asking the same question twice.

i hope you all got the grades you wanted :biggrin:
