I don't know local rules. I'd like to point to your sentence. Is it correct?

Your test result suggests that you are at level B1 in listening on the Council of Europe scale. At this level, people can understand the main points of clear "standard" speech on familiar matters connected with work, school, leisure etc. In TV and radio current-affair programmes or programmes of personal or professional interest, they can understand the main points provided the speech is relatively slow and clear.

I don't believe the test. It just can't be true. Even if it were A2 I wouldn't believe that. But.. well.. it's just funny that I managed to get this B1 after less than 2 months of watching Hélène et les garçons

Their oral comprehension tests are strange. Let me show you my scores:

12.11.2017 - 20/30 - B1 (and that after 1400 hours of mainly audio-input based learning).

21.11.2018 - 23/30 - B2 (2100 hours)

29.06.2019 - 27/30 (not sure if still classified as B2, 2300 hours).

On the other hand, I took a Spanish test last October (after 1400 hours of Spanish). I scored 28/30 and got classified as having C1. It gets even more interesting. I did the Greek test last September. The result: 27/30, B2. And that after 690 hours. OK, I get that I had benefited from my knowledge of Ancient Greek, but it can hardly explain why I scored so high - it is obvious that I didn't have that level.
