French GCSE revision help

I’m in Y9, and doing my GCSE in French early, but I’m finding it really stressful. Particularly with the writing exam on Friday, I don’t really know how to revise. I’ve done some stuff on tenses, but how else do you revise for a writing paper? I’d really appreciate it if you could give me some tips. Thanks!

I would first translate the questions to English on top of page and write about the theme you know more about. theme 1 is easiest for me but may be different for you. Try to also add reasons and different vocab when writing and don’t write more than world limit. You can do this.

I got a 9 in French gcse, so if you have any questions then let me know. May I ask what exam board you do? (I did Aqa)

To learn specific words I used a website called Memrise: there's plenty of courses on there so you'll be able to focus on your weaker areas. There are videos on YouTube which give checklists on what you need to include to get a high grade on the writing essays, there's no doubt these videos helped my do well on my writing paper.
