Hi thanks for the info…but i still find this confusing as my level differ’s to what i know…i.e my writing is a B1 my reading i would say was a B2 but speaking and understanding is A1 so what would you say my level was A1 A2 B1…???..

Well, I think what you said corresponds to your level, people can have different levels depending on the skill; it’s normally easier to read than to write or speak.
