    we've been told environment is fairly likely and maybe a bit on the olympics but probably not much because "profisport" came up before, I think in 2005.

    Well who knows whats coming up in the comprehension.
    But our teacher thinks relative pronouns are very likely oh and id check out adjective ending aswel.

    As for the letter im gonna go over my oral, learn stuff like school and the likes and go over my hardback. Not much else I can do really.

    I need a C1 in german for my top 4 college courses so im fairly nervous about this exam.
    But I did really well in my oral and im very good at the aural so even if the writeen doesnt go too great I should be sorted.

    I'm not sure about predictions but yesterday my German teacher randomly gave us all sheets on the olympic games, so that might come up. He doesn't usually hand out sheets for no good reason...

    I'm actually super worried about this exam. I really want to do super well in this as I hope to keep up German in college..I mean I'm even going to Germany at the end of the month!!

    *Sigh*

    i think that you should be doin
    1. drugs because it was topical in november when the paper was written
    2.Homeless and racism
    3. Im pretty sure obesity will be a sure bet this year
    4.I was given lots on europe by my teacher such as cliches about germany and ireland, also was given notes on the economy of both ireland and germany!!!

    this is just a few of the 30 essays i got 2 learn of !!!!
    remember that these topics could come up in the Auserung zum Thema and the letter so its well worth learning them off.

    Well my I'm hoping to get into Mary I (primary teaching) and if I were to get in then I would probably take up German, Irish and philosophy in my first year. So it's not a german specific course per-say.

    But if I were to end up doing arts then I would probably consider German as a option there too.

    +1

    The man speaks sense as my teacher said that same thing, and she has a scary obsession with all things grammar related.
