Listening test

Section 1 – a girl was looking for a part-time job.
Section 2 – a student-tutor conversation.
Section 3 – it was about a museum (with multiple choice questions A,B,C)
Section 4 – about graduates and employees, can’t remember exactly, but wasn’t hard at all.

Reading test

Passage 1 – a tourist attraction, the questions were of “true or false” kind.
Passage 2 – Something about university, who do you need to contact, what should students do in a certain situation, that sort of questions.
Passage 3 – students’ opinions about their course and college, “who says what” sort of questions.
Passage 4 – about children speaking more languages.
Overall, reading wasn’t too hard.
