French Speaking & Prelims

NOTE: FOR ANYONE INTERESTED IN TIPS AND ADVICE ABOUT ADVANCED HIGHER FRENCH, CLICK HERE.

I’m doing my 6th year prelims over the next two weeks, so I am officially on study leave. I was hoping that it was going to turn into a bit of a holiday with a few exams dotted throughout. Sadly, that’s not going to be the case.

Things have been piling up. I have to go in for a morning to discuss my Computing project with my teacher.

I have to go in tomorrow to work on my speaking prelim which I will be doing on the 6th. I find speaking French words hard enough; thinking them up on the spot is absolutely impossible. I’ve been spending the day thinking up sentences which I could use tomorrow, but whether or not they’ll be useful… I don’t know.

I actually thought that I’d be doing my speaking once we were back at school, but no.

Physics is going to be a lot of work. We only just finished the unit this week, and we had to really rush it, so nothing has really sunk in yet.

My other French exams need a lot of prep too.

Maths, however, will be my relief. It’s funny; the subject I’m most interested in is the one I get to spend the least time on. It will be good when that changes.

Right. Enough of this blogging nonsense – I have French to be doing!
