Messed up two SACs - Bye to a SS 45+ ???

i completely understand that he has his own standards, and that they may be different to others. That is the case for a lot of people, and I don't think we can judge him because of his standards

but the way he is going about telling people is not right.

Hmm, I got 100% on all SACs, A+ on both exams and still got just a 43. There were only about 16 or so people who got 44 and above though ... they must be German! Well 43 and up scales to 50, so even if you don't get 45 you should be fine!

Wart ein moment, warum sprechen ihr alle Englisch? Dass hat doch kein Sinn!

[thushan]

Stimmt! Ich muss mein Deutsch ueben, weil mein Deutsch nicht so gut ist.

Du hast eine perfekte Note bei der Klassenarneit und ein A+ bei der Pruefung und nur eine 43? Oh nein ich habe nur 90/100 bekommen. Doch, eine 40 waere sehr ueberraschend fuer mich!

Let's say I get 100% on my written exam?? Pretty confident that I get an A+ for the Oral. How many marks have you lost in the Written exam?

[thushan]

Oral and Written grades are combined.

Hmm... To be honest I think I did pretty well in the written exam, I think it might have been the oral that got me. I'm Swiss so I speak it with a slight accent and might have said a couple of words a bit Swiss-like - haha I dunno! Hmm well I mean if you get a forty, which is very achievable - a friend of mine got 39 I think - then you've got a 48 or a 49 there, and that's brilliant. I think my tip would be to really really learn how to write a letter or even a diary like last year. Letters pop up a lot and are fantastic as they give you a great opportunity to inject some personality into the exam - you could ask questions, recall some memories, make a couple of jokes even - they're good fun to write and show the examiner your engagement with the language, and separates you from the dull old formal speeches and persuasive pieces that most people do - not to say that that can't be done well! Am I making sense? Hope you enjoyed German this year and best of luck for the exam. I know I'm not a model for a raw study score, but if you need any help then ask away!
