In relation to all of the above, it must be taken into account that from 2020, a new exam format appears. It involves changes to the Tout Public listening and writing tests . However, for three years, that is, for the years 2020, 2021 and 2022, the old and new formats will coexist. This means that during these three years, on the day of your exam, your subject will correspond to the old format or the new format. Therefore, it is important to prepare for both exam formats.
