About the NVO Grade 7 Foreign Language Exam
Bulgaria's optional National External Assessment (Национално външно оценяване, NVO) in a foreign language at the end of Grade 7 measures CEFR A2 communicative competence in the language studied in compulsory hours. The 2025–2026 model (published 12.09.2025) is a 60-minute written paper with listening, reading, and one guided writing task, scored 0–100 points under Ordinance No. 11. It is one national assessment with language versions — typically English, German, French, Russian, and Spanish — not a separate exam per language. This free English MCQ bank trains A2 reading strategies and high-frequency grammar/vocabulary across those languages. It is not a simulation of the official audio listening paper, short free-response reading items, or the 20-minute writing task.
Assessment
Optional MON NVO (по желание) at CEFR A2. Listening (20 min): 10 MCQ in three parts — three short information texts heard twice, three short conversations heard once, one interview heard twice. Reading (20 min): 10 tasks in three parts — media text (3 MCQ), letter/invitation/social-media message (4 MCQ), notice/brochure/advert/timetable (3 short free-response). Writing (20 min): one guided everyday text from instructions and a source prompt. Papers are offered as language versions of one national assessment (English, German, French, Russian, Spanish). No speaking paper in the 2025–2026 model. This 100-question bank is an English MCQ study adaptation of reading strategies and high-frequency A2 grammar/vocabulary, with target-language text in the German, French, Spanish, and Russian items — not a listening, writing, or speaking simulation.
Time Limit
Official paper: 60 minutes (listening 20 + reading 20 + writing 20). 2026 date: 22 June 2026, 09:00.
Passing Score
Maximum 100 points. Each task carries points according to cognitive level, task type, and difficulty (official model §4). MON does not publish a pass/fail cut score. The 2025/2026 model states the total does NOT serve as a балообразуващ element for admission after Grade 7, and RUO Sofia-grad confirmed for the 2026 campaign that no Sofia class used the foreign-language result in its admission score.
Exam Fee
No exam fee for regular school candidates. Students apply at their school to sit the optional foreign-language NVO; MON does not publish a candidate fee. (Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Bulgaria (Министерство на образованието и науката, МОН))
