Examiner feedback
Comprehension is a clear strength (Reading 92%, Listening 78%), but production skills block a pass: Speaking at 22% is below the 30% section floor, and Writing at 38% shows verb and article errors under time pressure. Overall 58% — two points below the 60% Prep2Go readiness threshold.
Speaking by part
Colloquio libero
Good: Basic self-introduction intelligible to examiner.
Improve: Expand to work, hobbies, and one future plan sentence.
Gioco di ruolo
Good: Understood the shop scenario prompt.
Improve: Use conditional for polite requests (Vorrei…, Potrei…?).
Descrizione di immagine
Good: Named visible objects and people.
Improve: Add location prepositions (a sinistra, in primo piano).
Strengths
- Comprensione della lettura at 92% — detail and gist questions both strong.
- Comprensione dell'ascolto catches main ideas in dialogues and announcements.
- Writing uses time expressions correctly (ogni settimana, dopo, ogni sera).
- Connectors attempted in writing (Inoltre, Infine).
Areas to improve
- Produzione orale 22% — below the 30% section floor; answers too short for B1 interaction.
- Produzione scritta 38% — dormo / esco / fare colocation slips under timed conditions.
- Articles missing with food nouns: c'è spaghetti → ci sono gli spaghetti.
- Overall 58% — below the 60% threshold; comprehension alone cannot carry CELI 2.
Recommendations
- Drill present-tense conjugation for uscire, dormire, fare before retaking writing tasks.
- Memorise collocation frames: fare colazione, andare al lavoro, uscire con gli amici.
- Speaking: 90-second daily routine monologue with Infine / Inoltre — record and review.
- Retake the mock after 2 weeks of writing + speaking repair; do not book CELI 2 on reading alone.
