    I'm thinking of doing French ordinary level as the chances of me failing higher are very high...

    Thing is i don't even know what you have to do for the French OL?
    What's on the paper?

    And if i choose to stay with HL, any topics predicted? :)

    I'm dropping down tomorrow too :pac:

    Go to this website:
    http://www.examinations.ie/index.php?l=en&mc=en&sc=ep

    Click the box and go to:
    Exam papers > Leaving cert > Year > French

    Then download the O.L.


    The standard between the two levels is massive. Ordinary level actually looks funny :D
