    I think all NUI's require a d3 (pass) in a continental language.

    I'm no expert but every course I've ever looked at required it.

    Do you really think you're only going to get 1/3 or less of the paper wrong?

    Are you counting it as a points subject?

    Perhaps consider doing Ordinary Level on the day?

    Presume you mean think of getting a third or less right?. If I was thinkin of getting a third or less wrong in the paper I wouldnt be worried:o

    But just theres the tiny chance it could go bad, I hate it with a passion:eek:

    Will you look at this link to Qualifax and tell me what you read by the last paragraph of the LC reqs. I presume it goes for french?:confused:

    @ Sierra, more than likely not and that option has crossed my mind more than once..
