Forgetting the auxiliary verb in questions like "Where do you live?" or mixing up object and subject questions ( "Who directed the movie?" vs. "Who did you see?" ). Present Simple vs. Present Continuous (Unit 2)

The Speakout Pre-intermediate mid-course test (Units 1–6) typically focuses on four key areas: grammar, vocabulary, reading, and listening.

Long adjectives use the most + adjective (e.g., the most expensive ). 5. Future Intentions: 'Going to' vs. Will

The mid-course test heavily features fundamental English tenses and structures. You must know when and how to use each of these concepts. 1. Present Simple vs. Present Continuous

Here are three authentic-style questions you might encounter:

Using the Present Perfect ( have/has + past participle ) for experiences without a specific time.

Mixing up short adjectives ( faster ) and long adjectives ( more expensive ), or using "more" and "-er" together. Present Perfect + For/Since (Unit 6)

Irregular verbs change completely and must be memorized (e.g., go →right arrow went , buy →right arrow bought ). Negative structure : Subject + + base verb. Example : "We didn't see him at the party yesterday." 3. Present Perfect vs. Past Simple

Unit 3: Shopping and money . Countable/uncountable nouns. How much milk? How many apples? Comparatives: cheaper than, the most expensive . Lena remembered buying a coat that was than the one her friend bought. See? She could do this.
