No-one would use " They had had to retake the exam," in written or spoken English. One would possibly say "They'd had to retake the exam", but the simplest form "They had to retake the exam", is the commonest usage.

Getting 100% at level B2I seem to be stuck at 99.90% at level B2. my last 10 tests have all been tens. Obviously I will make a mistake eventually and I do not want to start C1 tests untill I get 100% at B2. I already have 100% at A0, A1, A2, B1. So, how many more tests must I take to reach 100% at level B2

Why is `bon` a feminine adjective? An adverb has no gender, but an adjective does.Tu préfères le chocolat ou la vanille ? - La vanille, c'est bon, mais le chocolat, c'est meilleur !
