I guess learning English isn't all that's cracked up to be so I suggest just forgetting about English all together and removing your affililation with any English-speaking message boards on the internet.

Add an entry into your LiveJournal. Then listen to Linkin Park.

To be completely serious, you seem rather good at speaking, or rather writing, English. You shouldn't be stressed. How well are you doing with your driving?

We will know our results tomorrow :E I'm very good with writing and grammar, but I hate listening comprehension tests, because some of the questions can only be solved with pure luck :/


EDIT: Oh and I'm not stressing english anymore, now I'm stressing swedish ;_;

Actually you're right, swedish is easy, but like I said, I hate listening comprehension tests :( plus I had problems with my earphones >:

I just wish I'd still have a chance to get M :(

I scored 73 ouf 90, which means I still have a strong hold of the 2nd best grade.(Practically, I even have a chance for the best grade).

Now I just need to wait for the second half of the tests which consists of reading comprehension tests etc. :)

Foreign countries have grades for different levels of knowing English? That's something they should implement over here, I think.

Well, I guess I could clear things up for you.

The total score of the exam is 299, which means that the upcoming written part will consists of 209 points.

If you wish to have the best grade, Laudatur you should have atleast 270 points. To get Eximia cum laude approbatur(The grade I'm currently aiming for) you should have around 250 points. This means, that in theory I can make failures worth of 32 points and I'd still get Eximia.((299-17)-250=32).

Although, the borders between the grades are slightly different every year, so the theory isn't 100% true. For my luck it seems that the listening comprehension we had was overall quite hard, which practically means that they will lover the scores you need to get good grades.

But yeah, I'm having the written exam at the beginning of October :o
