Does anyone know how many texts they study for these? I read somewhere it's 4 max including a Le Petit Prince type text for French but can anyone confirm? DS thinking about taking one or both.

I do not know the answer because the exam specifications change and my DD did her A levels a while ago now. I guess you could look the info up on the exam boards or ask the teachers.

My DD did do two MFL at A level and I can assure you that having MFL at A level and continuing one or both to degree level opens up the best universities. Many are struggling to get good MFL students and can make very good offers for MFL students to get them into the departments. (Just in case he is interested!)

As far as I know it's one text only! I don't teach a level tho, but certainly it used to be just one. May have changed with new spec - plus may vary according to board. Please encourage your DS - sooooo few dual linguists at a level Sad
