Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

good luck 🫡

I can't speak to Assimil, I can't speak to the feasibility of this, but this goal is ambitious. If at all possible, give yourself more time.

Quality of study is going to be very important, not just quantity.

What I'm about to say might sound stupid but having a B1 level and passing a B1-level test is not always the same thing. If you just need to pass this one test, your best bet is to study the test itself, look up the rubric for the production orale and focus on learning the expressions they're looking for, do as much of the test in advance as possible ie. if you know you'll need to introduce yourself, then write out and practice an introduction beforehand. If you prepare for the test instead of just studying french in general that's going to give you the best chance and you may be able to squeak by... or not

You could get lucky and get topics you've studied and are familiar with
