I have an Alevel french oral exam soon and i was wondering if anyone could tell me any useful general expressions that could impress the examiner??
I want to move away from je pense que etc...
Subjuctive phrases are problably the best eg quoi-qu'il-en soit etc, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Im especially looking for things which mean i think that but at a higher level than croire, penser, trouver etc.
Also, are there any general idiomatic expressions that i could use to impress the examiner??

You could say you would like to travel to France one day, you could say you have always thought it was a beautiful language so learning it was just the next step. And learning new languages opens new doors for people. Or you love french cuisine and want to be able to order your food in french! The second question is what career do you envision yourself pursuing in the future.

Just done my FR4, doing FR1 next week (one year crash course for adults at night school) and our teacher covered all that with us - a mon avis, je suis d'accord avec ... Perhaps some revision?? Must say I wouldn't risk idioms that I wasn't familiar with to impress and risk screwing it up altogether. Better to stick to good French, properly pronounced.

Ther are several good books of french idiomatic expressions that are available to the googler. You should try one if you want to speak the language better.
