Comprehensions were lovely for once

HelenAnn

I agree, the comprehensions were very nice! And did anyone else do the first Ausserung and notice how you could use an awful lot of material from Text 2 to help you?

I don't think I did very well on that listening though! Might have just been me though - I'm not very good at getting down all the details fast enough!

I liked all of the written paper. Even the grammar ( which i usually get like 0 on) Id say I did well in.

Listening went horribly though, worst ive ever done it was so hard.
But i dont care IM just so happy the leavings over now!!

Listening was hard enough, still hoping for an A1 though, went well overall

Did anyone struggle to understand the guy's voice on the tape? I thought his voice was really weird and had listen really carefully to understand what he was saying. The paper was pretty nice altogether though

Isitthough?

Yeah was a fair exam nothing too difficult. I also found the listening hard enough like listening was always my weak point but i think that went worse than usual

I found part 2 and part 4 hard on the listening, i've seen German news many times before as well, they don't speak that fast in real life.

LOVED that paper.. had absolutely no study for it really but the comprehensions were beautiful. The brief and ausserung were fabulous also... #lovingDeutsch

Yeah there was something odd about it alright. My superintendent said it was the same in the French exam, there was an odd voice and some students said it was hard to understand.

Did anyone else find Part 4 of the listening hilarious? Talking about the penguins like. I've never heard penguin in German so I had a massive grin on my face when she started talking penguins wearing pullovers.

Listening was hard, especially when you had to take the note down, couldn't get the expressions that showed urgency...
Lol'd at your man who was getting given out to for looking at funny memes on his phone, German department knows us too well
Did the letter and found it lovely, used loads of stuff from my oral, nice paper overall

neonmaria

listening was pretty disastrous and found the letter pretty strange aswell but atleast the aussrung zum thema was nice and the grammar was grand

Was I losing my mind or were they actually talking about putting jumpers on penguins???
