Aiming for A* in A-Level Spanish - Help?
Hi!
(Y13 doing AQA Spanish)
Would be so grateful to hear from anyone doing A-Level Spanish. I'm a one-person class (which does have its benefits...) so I don't have any classmates to ask!
Any tips on revision would be great, specifically on how people are prepping for IRP and speaking cards as the speaking exam is weighing down my marks...
Thanks

Hello,
I'm Y13 AQA Spanish too, but I'm in a five-person class. For the IRP, I have my presentation written up on a google docs with sources attached, I also excluded some facts I knew in case they ask me a question that needs more data (I recommend reading around for a few extra facts to store in your head). As for the speaking exam, you could try the mindmaps for each topic on the astarspanish website, I think two-three facts per topic is enough for top marks in the knowledge section of each speaking card. Personally, my grammar is probably weighing down my marks from an A* to A's.
Hope this helps! 😊
