OCTOBER 2010 - FRENCH test thread

<p>^ It might be a little more generous. According to the blue book, up to how many points can be deducted before there is a change in the actual score?</p>

<p>i dont understand ur question…</p>

<p>^ Basically, how many questions can you get wrong and still have an 800? :p</p>

<p>oh haha! raw score of 75… so you can get 8 wrong… 77 correct answers - (85-78 =7 ; 7/3 = 2,66) so yuppp you can have 7 wrong… crapppppp i really need to figure out how many i have wrong… if i should cancel or not…</p>

<p>^ Don’t cancel! You probably did better than you think you did. Besides, the vast majority of your answers so far are correct :)</p>

<p>Woah, I did not catch “arrive” as being subjunctive. Thank goodness I took this test in June.</p>

<p>TO SUM UP THE QUESTIONS: </p>

<p>1) ad for a store and the question : a) visit the store</p>

<p>2) eats the most bread (answer in text was agriculteurs) -Cultiveurs. </p>

<p>3) this woman singing, and i think the answer choices were paroles, murmures,etc. -paroles</p>

<p>4)LOUIS VUITTON ! first answer: UNE MONTRE.
5) LV: second: i dont remember… i think something about travellers mastering time… someone remember it?</p>

<p>6) dont remember Q: answers: que, pourve que,… -i chose des que…</p>

<p>7) House building lady text :answer of Q1 about it was : PIECES (i think)
8) Q2: who builds these houses? une compagnie renomm</p>

<p>for now i think my score is : 2 ommitted, 2 dont remember what i wrote, and thats it actually! :)</p>

<p>For the parents accompanying them, I put that they wanted to keep a watch on them, I may be wrong</p>

<p>@ 2011ivy: Assuming the ones you can’t remember were incorrect, you still have a good shot at getting an 800. :)</p>

<p>:) but i might’ve gotten more wrong haha. </p>

<ul>
<li>i think i put surveiller too, i just dont seem to remember; i remember doubting between 2, but idk what i picked at the end :(</li>
</ul>

<p>W/e… getting a 700+ instead of 800 won’t make any difference once it comes to applications…</p>

<p>Are you guys native speakers of French? How many years of French did you guys take in highschool?</p>

<p>I took French I and French II at a local college but I don’t know if that will be enough for the test.</p>

<p>I don’t think 2 years will be enough, unless you were really dedicated and it was a rigorous class… go to the college board website and try to do some practice questions.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I lived in Montreal when I was in third grade, and attended a public elementary school during that year where every subject, including math, was taught in French. So I’ve had some pretty extensive exposure to the language. :p</p>

<p>Well I took those two years and I did some intense self-studying as well. I will try to take some practice tests when I get the chance :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Is it difficult to get a 760+? And what score looks good for colleges?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I knew no French up until 8th grade and took 3 years of French. Got a 740. Close enough. So 3 years (French 1, 3 Honors, 4 AP) was enough for me.</p>

<p>2011ivy…i added some more…</p>

<p>Non-passage ques:
je doute qu’il ARRIVE avant mardi
the waking up ques: a l’aube</p>
