Actual outcome of my German exam...
May. 13th, 2005 11:18 amWell, it sucked. It more than sucked. It went all the way through bad, awful and excruciating and came out somewhere on the other side. But at least it's over. It's only worth 20% anyway, so hopefully I can balance it out by doing well in the translation exam.
But it was just so stupid! The questions weren't even that difficult, I just freaked out! They asked me about my literature topic first, which I was cross about, and asked me a load of questions I understood fine but just didn't know how to answer. Then they moved on to my controversial topic, abortion, and I felt a bit better because I had a lot to say, but then three lines in to my introduction they interrupted me and started asking me all these questions about abortion counselling! No! So I didn't have much to say on that, but they kept asking and asking, and if only they had let me get onto the actual main body of what I wanted to talk about, I might've been ok.
GGGAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK, now I feel a bit better...
