Does anyone taking spanish at GCSE or A level agree that the Edexcel exam system for languages is poo!? I can speak pretty good spanish, but it comes to the exams and most people do bad! The exams consist of stupid stupid exercises that seem pointless...you take a language to learn the language...nobody is going to go there, grab any random spaniard and fill in a task sheet about little homeless pablo and his dog! Or really ennoy some latino by copying what his saying using different words!

...and if anyone has any handy revision tips for spanish...HELP!!!

I'll be choosing Spanish as a compulsary language if I get into 6th Form.

Better than Russian or 'Chinese' though.

If they wanted to go to China? Work for the Chinese Travel Service? Because it's an interesting and challenging language?

Well in that case could you try and learn how to use the language.

You seem to have a tendency to leave out random words here and there. And stop using text-talk.
