Bilan de l'année : le rétrospectif de son propre profil d'erreurs
P47.b2-writing.36 · Audience: guest, language-pro, it-ml
Unité PE-34 · campagne 26 · vos dix copies corrigées savent déjà où vous perdez vos points.
The year closes not with a new lesson but with an audit of the old ones. Somewhere in a drawer sit ten corrected copies, each marked and forgotten. Read together, they draw a map no teacher can give you: your error profile — the handful of mistakes that are yours, recurring copy after copy like a fingerprint.
The method is a recensement, plain and unglamorous. List every correction across all your copies, then sort by frequency:
| Fault | Copies affected | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Accord du participe passé | 7 / 10 | High — recurrent, costly |
| Anglicisme isolé | 1 / 10 | Low — one-off |
| Virgule oubliée | 1 / 10 | Low — one-off |
The lesson of the table is to triage by recurrence, not by visibility. The lone anglicism jumps off the page, but the participle agreement failing in seven copies out of ten is what quietly bleeds points all year. You fix the pattern, not the exception.
That triage then becomes a tool. A vague resolution to « faire attention » changes nothing; a personal checklist — « vérifier : accord du participe passé, ses/ces, accent sur à » — reread before you hand in every future copy, targets exactly the leaks you have measured.
Run the audit again in six months and the profile will have shifted: three old faults gone, perhaps one new arrival. Read that correctly. It is not failure — it is proof the profile is alive and moving, and the newcomer simply joins the updated checklist. Self-assessment, done honestly, is the first step of every real gain.
The practice sets up the retrospective, triages by recurrence, turns the finding into a checklist, and reads an evolving profile as progress.
