bring up my french to graduate studies level
Any ideas? 16 months ago

So I’ve been reading lemonde and liberation but I feel like I need something more structured.
For the record, I went to a French school from K-8 and then took French off and on in high school and college. I speak pretty decent conversational French, as long as you don’t ask me whether the verb tense I just used ends in ai or ais, and basically I’m just looking to solidify the debate skills and the reading comprehension at a higher level.

I don’t have a ton of money since I’m saving up for the move in January, so Rosetta Stone or something is out, unless someone has a copy :)

Any more ideas?
