Due to the very few resources students have access for getting better at the MLAT exam I have created a French practice paper with corrections. The Modern Languages Admissions Tests (MLAT) is compulsory to any student applying for Oxford and Cambridge Modern Languages Departments.
My mock exam follows both the format and the grammatical structures of the original paper which includes:
- an exercise about prepositions
- an exercise about tenses (subjunctive, present, past, future, conditional, etc.)
- two exercises about translations (both languages).
