What were the 2023 essays again? those topics won't come right?
I mean for German writing there are like 5 key topics - family, social media, music, university and work, holidays and free time

yes and also split into theme 1,2,3 and then the translation at the end. I think you could prepare by just practicing translations, and for the writing part have a bank of adjectives and know how to use different sentence structures to get the higher end of the marks and so its not that repetetive.

how did everyone find oral reading and listening? Do you reckon grade boundaries will be higher or lower this year?

If we use the exact same structure and repeat stuff in the 16 and 32 marker is that fine?

Do you think that you could just revise theme 1 and theme 2 as there is a choice of questions and just leave out theme 3?

I am doing that but leaving theme 2 because theme 3 is practically guaranteed to come up
Good luck for tomorrow everyone : )

Hey Guys do all themes come up in the paper and can the same theme be chosen for the 90 and 150 words
