It was a pretty good exam i thought :D I got a bit confused during the listening part about the Fête du Travail, but asides from that it was alright

For the writing piece, i chose the one about writing a letter about a "holiday that had a big influence on you." Was really happy to see one of them was a letter, i've done so many of them this year  :D

I think I messed up what was possibly the only subjunctive in my composition and wrote that the guy in Listening 'must' choose programs rather than he 'would' choose them. Otherwise, I reckon I sailed through. Still bitter about that first mistake though. Would I lose a mark for grammar if I had no correct subjunctive but plenty of idioms and if clauses?

You don't even need subjunctive in the respond in French parts, I think. That question was really asking for the use of the conditional.

And also, how many different grammatical points do we need? Does anyone know? In my composition, I only used imparfait, subjunctive (3 times?), present, causative faire, pronoun stuff, interrrogatives, passee composee, conditional and imperatives, as well as depuis and stuff. Don't think I included enough though ><

I don't think they have a list of grammatical devices to check you off on. Semi-common ones like the subjunctive they might look for but otherwise I think they're marked holistically.
