I've got a dodgy school then. We all had to take a modern foreign language for GCSEs. Not that it would have made a difference, I did two, lol.

We sorta have to take at least one language because our school has the title of specialist language college...

i had that too!! and i had some other thing about some boring woman who didnt like cars and took buses

then i had to review a film so i complained for 2+ pages about how shite star wars ep. 3 is \o/


and yes no more english ever sure feels good

I had to write about some thing in the world that concerns me, so i ranted about how fishstocks are declining and how the government are "incompetant" in handling it.

In my language exam we had to do poems comparison, I did the hurricane hits england and one other poem, and then we had 'describe a nightmare world' for our description questions, which was really nice. My friend had a nightmare where he was still on 56k

I did the Hurrican Hits England and compared it to Presents from my Aunts in Pakistan. I'm terrible at descriptive writing so i chose the letter to the governors of the school saying about improvements to the school.

Most people did the nightmare one though probably because there were no limits to what could be written.

i compared Blessing to Night of the scorpion. then i did what worried me in the modern world. i did capitalism lol because thats the only thing i could think of. in truth i love capitalism but there you go.

I did those questions too - i kinda struggled on the poetry though, seeing as i missed all the work on them due to being in hospital Second uestion was pretty easy, though i had to use my extra time

But good luck too all those doing them ATM, and hope ya all get the results you want in August or whenever!
