AP French Lang

I'm forced to take this class next year and I'm not the best student. I still get A's (barely), but my grammar and speaking isn't the greatest. Is there anyway to make this class easier? Maybe studying over the break?

I recommend that you buy REA's AP French Lang book. Definitely study overbreak and I recommend that you read, speak and write in french as much as possible.

I took French Language last year. The reading isn't that hard, really.
Listen to as much French material as you possibly can. Some of the questions in listening are spoken faster than others, and if not prepared you could be hit with "whoa what they just say".

Start writing a French journal, I swear it helps with the essay.

^ I totally agree with Vivi. I also took French Lang last year and didn't find it to be that difficult. One thing to do on top of writing a french journal would be to write all your class notes in french. Anything that I had to do for a class, that did not have to be turned in, I wrote it in French. It could really help.
