hello all,
any suggestions on how to study for the situations section of the beg. exam? besides the obvious use of past papers.
thankyou for your help

 

[iambored]

if you want general suggestions, not suggestions from someone who did beginners tell us what the situation section is about and we'll come up with something

 

[lislabella]

hehe
like you get put in a situation - "you are at the doctors" "you are at the train station"
"ask for a ticket one way for rome"
"tell the doctor your symptoms"
etc etc
they are so broad i was just wondering if anyone had come up with a method for studying them effectivly - i might just stick to learnng a heap of vocab and learning th epast exam papers

 

[iambored]

yeah I say learn a heap of vocab like you said. Also make up some general answers that can adapt to many different questions if you can. (For my speaking I had one answer that i could use for questions like "where do you want to travel in the future" as well as "what would you do if you won the lottery" and so on.

I am pretty much learning vocab for the situations and checking out past papers

[lislabella]

i've taken to learning the situations from 1996 - 2004 plus situations ive been given over the past two years and then vocab relevant to the "traveller abroad" deal. Yeah with conversation i wrote general answers too - the questions from past exams pretty much ask the same things so yeah.
but thanks for your help
