Actually, you're both wrong...

It's "Parlez-vous français?"

my guess was good enough, my french lessons never teach me grammar anymore.

Really? Last semester, all I did was grammar.

But I never have to take French ever again. :)

no, all I have to do is being able to read it, and learn some words.

This was the mentality I carried with me all the way through the semester. Same for Phys-ed and Geography.

I am also done with Geography, but I took two arts instead of Phys-Ed, so I'm stuck with it next year.

We never got that option. I chose Comprehensive Arts for my art course, and what a mistake that was.

Hah, you poor kid. I could have had music, drama, visual art, or a combination. I took drama and visual art.

I also had a choice between AutoCAD, Phys-Ed, Home Ec (lol)or Business (lol). I chose AutoCAD, as the only un-lawlworthy tech course in grade 9.

English, French, Science, Math and Geo were all mandatory, except for French which could be ESL, if E was really your SL.

Comprehensive Arts is a combination. It's music, film, drama and visual arts all crammed into one. We only had only one choice of a Tech class which was again, a combination of everything (including your AutoCAD).

AutoCad, the breakfast of champions!

I'm surprised they teach that in highschool. A lot of whiney crybabies that learn DataCad say AutoCad is too hard. I didnt think it was too hard.

I use AutoCad every day for work. Its given me atrophied muscles, thinning hair and a worn out Esc key and I feel fine.

Haha, to be perfectly honest I hated that program. I just drew all my projects by hand.

I think I'm the only one in my class who actually <i>wanted</i> to take AutoCAD. The rest of those idiots just wanted a computer cousre in which they could play games. They found N online, and almost everyone downloaded it, so I guess it serves its purpose...

I'm such a horrible person. I introduced my friend to N, who introduced it to everyone else. I'm such a rebel.


I think I have 96% right now, but it may go up. Yeah.

And we're doing Auto Architect now, which is awesome, so it may go up. Yeah.

I took AutoCAD in high school, and I have a copy of it installed on my computer now. As a Civil Engineer, I use it all the time, it's fantastic! Unfortunately, I think the D.O.T. is bribing UConn because suddenly the school switched over to the much inferior Microstation. Nobody in the school even knew how to use it so they had to take both that and AutoCAD out of the course curriculum! They still give us free copies so we can learn it ourselves, but it's ridiculous.

Auto Architect and 3D Home Architect are awesome as well, but if you're not building a model to go along with it, ur doin it rong.
