    When it comes to the document, I'm going to be utterly eccentric!

    SIDE NOTE: How long can we spend talking about the document? Will the examiner cut me off at any point?

    My teacher is new so she might be wrong but she said if they see the document straight away they might ask you it and you can talk about it for the whole thing or for as long as you have prepared!

    I wasn't going to whip it out straight after going into the room. Here's my plan: the document takes me about 4 minutes to recite so I'll look at my watch and 4 minutes from the end of the interview I'll say "Ahh, Avant d'oublier, j'apporte un document!" That way the examiner won't have any time at the end to ask me questions about the document, brilliant! :D

    So I'm making mine about TV show, Lost. It's like the greatest show in existance :D

    So I have anticipated questions on My favourite character, Least favourite character, favourite scene, The general story line, whether the acting is good and why I like it.

    Anyone got any other ideas on what I could anticipate? :)

    I'm only doing pass, and teaching french to myself outside of school to meet entry requirements, so my standards will be very poor in comparison to others. :P

    Doubt they'd ask you much more than that for pass!

    Apart from that one. :P

    I wonder what would happen if I went in and said I totally agreed with racism... If my French was good they'd have to give me the marks like. :pac:

    Lolz, that'd be awful. Tout le monde est égal. :)

    Hahaha, that's true, they couldn't penalise you for it!
    I know, but a bitta racist humour never goes astray! Racist/sexist/homophobic jokes = the best ones <3 but racism/sexism/homophobia = not cool! :O

    True that, yeah some are quite funny.

    Sure if you're Irish it's not racist, it's just havin' the craic! ;)
