What is this course about and what is in the exam?
To pass the exam and to be able to follow your university courses you should have a B2 level, but what does this mean? This is an overview of what someone at a B2 level can do: 1. Can understand the main ideas of complex text on both concrete and abstract topics, including technical discussions in his/her field of specialisation. 2. Can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party. 3. Can produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options.
 * Level B2 **

It means that a B2 user can use language successfully in contexts that are reasonably familiar. Can you do this? Go to the link below to do a test to see what your level is: As you go you could make a note of questions that you find difficult. Are they a matter of grammar or vocabulary? Comprehension or production? [] (Tests adapted by Andy Gillet 2010 for Uefap.com)
