    common sense also plays a huge part in it. If you take the example that we just did in the video : if you had already finished the part a.) and the positive boxes (bueno) had been filled in, there would only be the two negative (malo) boxes left so the other topics that you herd must be negative etc. I'm taking my exam as well but don't worry - its 100% possible to score a 9 without knowing all the vocab. As long as you know verb endings and conjugations so that you can understand the tense - the rest should come naturally. Hope this helps and good luck :) Reply
