National German Exam: Test preparation. National German Exam can be proctored online this year, so we will go ahead and take it. As in every year, I would like to make this your final exam with very lenient grading (Any medal 100%, Achievement Award 92%, Below 80-89% depending on result. In the past years, at least 90% of students in the German 1-2 classes received either a medal or an achievement award)

This week: Practice Exam 2: Listening and Viewing. Please sent me a picture of your score via remind. This assignment is counted as done or not done, the purpose is to practice, so do not fret if your score was lower than you hoped for. This exam also does not expect a score of 100%. If you score in the 80+ percent, that is STELLAR!
