It’s the turn of the professional high school students to return

In front of the Turquetil professional high school in Paris, students gather as best they can to protect themselves from the rain. “It’s okay, I’m not afraid of the French test, we worked hard on it. Mays I’m more dreading history this afternoon, because I’m having more difficulty. Yesterday, I didn’t do anything, I slept. I rested well for the tests today and tomorrow, confides Lu’naa, in the professional leather goods baccalaureate.

Nancy, in her professional fashion baccalaureate, wasn’t too keen on revision: “Yesterday I welcomed a kitten into my home! So, I revised last night. When I came, I was quite stressed, but now it’s okay.”

High school students begin to arrive at Arago high school in Paris

Stress rises a few minutes before the tests at the Arago high school in Paris (12th century). Laurent on the techno track is calm: “Honestly, I don’t care at all, I haven’t calculated a single philosophy course for the year. I got 13 in my baccalaureate. I take questions straight away, I don’t think. I calculated my points for the baccalaureate and I must have a minimum of 6 in each subject to get it.

I’m not naturally stressed and that stresses me out ! I slept 3 hours last night, confides Pauline, generally.”

Milo, in general, is also not very confident: “I haven’t revised. This year, I had a bit of trouble with philosophy, I didn’t really stick to it so I didn’t want to revise.”

Inès on the day she spent yesterday: “It was crying and stress. I tried to keep myself busy, I did something else. I didn’t want to study the day before because last year, with the French baccalaureate, it caused me to have an anxiety attack. I didn’t sleep soundly. I was half awake.”
