My Preparation For My Exam

Yesterday, I had an exam. As a matter of fact, it wasn't exactly an exam but a test to prepare it. But globally, the feeling was the same. I wanted to deliver the best performance I could, because indeed it was an oral expression.

The test aimed to be able to introduce one of the 12 texts we had to learn in French. It was a presentation of about 10 minutes. We had to introduce the text, read the text, then to analyse the different tools the author used to deliver a message (for instance a metaphor) and finally to conclude and answer to a grammar question.
That was the first part.
The second part was about introduce your favourite book and explain with 3 reasons by using tangible examples from the book. And after that, it turned into an exchange with the teacher about what you said (favourite character, scene, etc).

To prepare myself for this exam, I had a very structured plan.
I've been working 2 hours a day for 2 weeks.
The first one was really important. The goal was to learn the introduction, the problem and the conclusion. Then, I was reeinforcing my knowledge about the different analysis we made with my teacher (I put them all in my review sheet) for about 30 minutes. I worked every text for an hour so I did 2 texts a day.
The second week was an essential part of the preparation. I've been introducing every text in front of my parents so that I could work on my fluency and expression to be more persuasive. I had to prepare the draft for every text for 30 minutes, and it enabled me to know exactly how I should organize myself.

Yesterday was the day. I was stressed but confident, because I know I did all I could to pass it. And it went on very well.
The teached told me it was very good, the reading, the analysis and the answer to the grammar question. Nevertheless, it wasn't perfect because of the second part. She said it was clear that I've read the book, but it was a little confused sometimes so it's exactly where I have to work in the future to get the perfect grade.
I don't know my result but I think I'll get it in about a week or a week and a half, I hope before the vacations.

I hope you enjoyed reading my text! Please tell me what you thought of my English!

"En fait" usually most closely translates to "actually." "As a matter of fact" isn't really wrong, but it's far less common and would more often in a different context, like with a more serious tone about clarifying something

I think there is not enough of a cause and effect relationship here to use "because" An "oratory exam" focuses on the "public speaking/presentation" aspect. An "oral exam" is sort of like a question and answer format. Maybe you could say "as indeed the focus of the test was on oral expression."

"A week or a week and a half" would feel cumbersome to say; most people would just say "a week or so" to approximate this time, but if you really wanted to be specific, you could say "I'll get it in 7-10 days" or even "in less than two weeks" Vacation time in the context of school / university is typically called a "break"

Comma splice but okay in casual writing
