Q&A: 1.How do I know which level I should start with? If you haven't taken any exam before: If you have passed BEC Preliminary or achieve a score equivalent to this level: If you have passed BEC Vantage or achieved a score equivalent to this level: You may take an exam at the course blog homepage link Level 1: you may start from Module One Level 2: you may start from Module Five 2. How do I get into study groups? 1) Determine your level (see the question 1); 2) Setup your blog and Mendeley (see the tutorial); 3) Send an to me with your level, blog link and Mendeley account; (if you have any other needs with study, you are fully welcomed to let me know) 4) You will be invited into a study group according to your level

Q&A: 4. How much should I pay for the course? Definitely Free! ¬.¬ 3. Can I pass the BEC exam after I take the course? The course is basically designed for learners who are interested in study business English and who would like to use English in their career. It is much more emphasized on PRACTICAL USE of ENGLISH rather than the exam (the final assessment of this course is also based on assessing learners’ use of English in business issues). So I cannot guarantee that you would definitely pass the exam after study but I am sure that you would benefit a lot from this course:)
