Zertifikat

I received my certificate for the German Language Level A1. It says, "1.3" for the grade. I guess this is the overall grade inclusive of the oral examination then! I didn't expect I'd be so good... It was a lot of stress, a lot of fun and a nice experience to do it in Germany itself. Let's hope it comes to good use later on;)

Surprising results =)

I was grieving over my test the whole of yesterday, after counting and realizing a couple of stupid mistakes. Yet today, a miracle happened;)

WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

We had a oral test with our teachers in group (me and two other students together). Surprisingly, one student who just finished before us came forward and told me," Hey Trixy, die Prüfung, du hast eins komma sieben punkte!" I didn't understand initially how the grades work... I think it wasn't as bad as I thought. And when we entered the room for our oral test (think this will contribute to the final score), we had a short conversation to test how fluently we could speak. I made a few mistakes but I just had to, instead of staying mute. The teachers then revealed our results to us...

I scored 1.7, so did the other guy in my group. And the highest grade someone scored for this test is actually 1.7, but of course that person is not me. But I'm glad enough, in fact overwhelmed by my results. We have a total score of 70 for the paper, and I got 62.5. Ahh, so much better than I predicted. The girl who scored the highest actually got 73 out of 80 (but they are in the faster class so they had 10 questions more than us in the same test). So we can't really compare.

Fehler, fehler... fehler...

People always copy because they are in search of the right answers... however I am getting all the wrong ones :(((((

Fehler deutsch = Mistake english

Copying is also a Fehler!!! Sobs.... But it has to be my fault, can't blame the guy who has kindly offered me his answers... can I? He's so kind to share, yet he's giving me his mistakes as well. So now we can be wrong together. LOL. OK, in case you are lost somewhere. I am talking about the German test I had this morning. I just realized a lot of stupid mistakes... A few times I wrote EXACTLY the right answers and I choose to edit them. So now, more fehler!!! Stupid me :(((

For e.g. there's the feminine, masculine and neutral for the nouns... this particular word I had the correct gender but I was hesitating between the two (female or neutral). I decided to ask my neighbour ;) He shrugged but finally reluctantly chose the former. So I followed along... haizzzz. I need to bang my head on the wall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
