    Scoring

     Please take your learners’ level into account.

     Students in level 1 and 2 are placed in the basic component of the Common European Framework
    (Level A1). Therefore, they cannot produce as much language as an intermediate level student.

     Throughout the test students are assessed on their own individual performance and not in relation
    to each other.

     To obtain a high grade, students should be able to use structures and vocabulary taught in the units
    that he/she just completed. However, expect errors since the learners have not fully acquired the
    material.
