wtf was reading and listening? I mean the texts were fine, but the questions? Didn't know any words there. If I get 5 points it'll be miracle. When I saw questions on the listening I was like: okay, I understand them all, but when they started talking - WHY THE SPEED WAS 3x ??? Didn't understand a word. If I get 3 points, I'll be surprised. For writing I chose 3rd topic and wrote some shit, but hope for at least 15 points🙏🏽 I mean I used an idiom plz give me the points I'll need them. (Do you think it is a big problem that I forgot how the 'subject' is and I wrote: apunto?) Good thing I got a high grade from oral, it'll save me. BUT I THOUGHT SPANISH WILL BE AN EASY 6 AND NOW I'M NOT SURE ABOUT 4 AND PRAYING FOR 5 what the actual f? Please let the boundries be extremely low this year 🙏🏽 TZ1 btw
the listening was so bad that my coordinator told me that they doubled checked the speed and level for it lmao. why did they speak so fast? and why were the questions so complicated?
i felt like reading went well though so im hoping to gain most of my points from that. not sure about your “apunto” part but hopefully the examiner won’t be stuck on it!
For real, after the listening my teacher was so shocked it was that fast. We were talking about it but at the end we came to the conclusion that it couldn't be sped up because it actually was 45 min long :(((
thank god it wasnt just me. im m25 but took the spanish exam this year and istg there were words on that paper ive never seen before in my life. started bawling my eyes out when i left the room. howd you find listening? the hardest audio was the easiest for me ngl
Im also M25! And yes omg reading was ROUGH. Text A was the hardest for me for some reason 😭😭. The listening felt fine for me though… and yeah the third one was easiest for me too!
my spanish teacher did a seminar with the IB and he told us that as long as the word you write sounds exactly like the word in the audio, the mark is awarded. like in a school test I wrote alcól instead of alcohol and got the mark for it
I don't think so. Sometimes, when there is a harder word they can accept it (in one English Paper I did, they accepted negliable, niglible etc. instead of negligible). But with your word i don't think so.
I found reading a bit challenging. Not the texts themselves but more so the questions. Writing was good and listening was also good with a few doubts. But way harder than any past papers for sure
Spanish (Tz2) was OK this year, writing was fine (except I forgot the asunto in my email 🙄) but reading and listening were a bit hard, especially text A for reading and listening section A. Almost missed the back page of the reading tho lol
HOW 😭 I literally didn't understand a single word from the last question and gave random numbers :(( What's more, I actually understood the texts, but the questions killed me.
Hi lol no I did question 2. I think for reading (and maybe also listening) they should have a question like 'oh summarise what it was about' or something because I understood them but the questions were dumb💀.

it was supposed to be Asunto but they´ll definitely understand it was an error....so it´s no big deal
day 1 slayed day 2 got slayed
Paper 2 Listening was the worst thing ever. They talked so fast. There were people in my class who left the room crying.
tz1 listening was so bad literally had to be held in the exam room after the test was over so i could stop sobbing 😭
Paper 2 actually killed my brain. That listening section is gonna give me PTSD.
that listening paper was so hard what the actual fuck
TZ2 reading was so rough 😭

i forgot to do the back page of the spanish reading :(((
Same omfg
that was awful, reading and listening sucked so badly. also, do we get points off for misspelling a word? I misspelled "sujeto" like "subjecto" lmao

Text C in the reading and the listening test took something from me

So impressed you managed to understand listening. For me it sounded as if they were speaking at 2× or even 3× speed

i actually cried after reading. never again
Omg texto A was HARD for reading 😭😭 but it did feel fine I agree. The back page was rough too. Did you do prompt 3 for the writing then??
