    How did people find the listening? I found the written paper to be very fair but i struggled with the listening. I've never been good at listening, for the pre i got 79% in the written section and only 49% in the listening, so i was just wondering did everybody find it difficult or was it just me?

    The listening I got in the mock was terrible for me. I got 75% out of the listening which isn't my norm. I much preferred the listening in the JC exam. I got the place mentioned in the comprehension but I didn't know the translation to English as I don't think it comes up quite a lot and it wasn't a large town, so I just left it in German. Hopefully I'll still get the marks :)

    75% is a very good mark. I do French but at both Irish and French, I'm atrocious at listening. I got only 44/140 on my mock French and 16/40 in Irish, so be thankful with that mark :mad:.

    While it is a very good mark, different people have different aims.

    I think it was something like Baden-Baden? I wasn't sure if it had a translation or not, so I decided to just go with what I heard.
