How the test works

Below are 12 tasks: they cover every lesson of the module, and one goes back to module 10. 10 correct answers on the first try means you’ve passed the module. If you make more mistakes, go back to the lessons where they happened:

  • saber / conocer, a before a specific person’s name → lesson 51;
  • encima de, enfrente del → lesson 52;
  • ven, pon and other tú commands → lesson 53;
  • abrid, sentaos → lesson 54;
  • le doy → lesson 49.
