Hopefully there’s a rare few on here that are Russian or have done a Russian GCSE…
Well let me start by saying I’m a northerner at heart, I come from the north of England but I’m a quarter Russian and I’m fluent in it…I don’t even know how because I didn’t even sit down and learn it!
But anyway I did a GCSE in Russian last year and I got an A, I know this probably sounds stupid but I’m supposed to be Russian and fluent and I only got an A? I probably sound like ungrateful but I genuinely did try hard in it and I feel like almost guilty with myself for not getting an A* I mean I got an A* in listening, A in speaking, and both B’s for reading and writing, miraculously I got an A but I can’t help but feel guilty.
IVE LET DOWN THE RUSSIAN RACE. That’s exactly how I feel, and please whoever says to me that I can resit next year I’m completely against that idea because whoevers done it will know how STRESSFUL AND TIRING IT IS TO SIT A LANGUAGE EXAM ESPECIALLY A RUSSIAN ONE, with a stupid hard alphabet I always panic in exams especially speaking ones, for example I was doing a French speaking exam and I started speaking Russian?!?
Please someone…ANYONE help me stop feeling guilty!
Cheers
