Hope you finally had that first year
Yes I am! I'm doing my first year again And yes I've created this quiz to anchored the course in my mind! It works but I got to create the others for Civilisation américaine and the new lessons in Civilisation Britannique! I hope I'll succeed this year! Thank you for your wishes ! ^^
Argh! Thought I'd got a 100 but I got tricked by 3 questions!!!
My first year was so long ago...I completely forgot what was the act of settlement!!!
Your test was really fun (brough back memories)...
Are you a first year? Are you cramming for the examens? If so, good luck!
