Younger Daughter didn't like any of the dissertation questions, so she chose "commentaire de texte", working on a Descartes quote. She found it quite easy.

She got her result last week : she scored 11/20. She was bitterly disappointed. Her philo teacher said "oh yes that was a difficult text. Full of présupposés and sous-entendus."

Amazingly, it didn't stop her getting the mention "très bien" (overall average of 16 or better).
