Advertisments are really bothering us and do not allow us to answer the questions
please check it.

Advertisements are annoying!!!!! I always can’t write down 2,3 questions.

your site is pretty, but it does not provide writing and speaking part. I am hopefully expecting you to provide this two parts soon.

35 out of 40… 8

34/40. Just made some silly mistakes

There is a problem with the 8th question. You can’t write in the provided area. And also the listening track stopped working on the last part of the exam.
