How do we express "to make someone late?"The Week One B2 writing challenge used "mettre" rather than "faire" to say when something (a taxi) made me late ("m'a mis en retard"). Is there a lesson with some examples on using mettre? Thanks.

Test scoresI've been trying to reach a "confidence" level of 90% at C1 level. I got to 89.9%, took 2 further C1 tests and got 100% on each, but my level slipped back to 89.6%. How's that?

"They're expecting him to arrive at any minute now" Perhaps a third way to say this is to use the longer form with the subjunctive : "Ils s'attendent à ce qu'il arrive d'une minute à l'autre." Is this ok? Does it convey more or less of the anxiety conveyed by the example using "Ils s'attendent à son arrivé...?" Thanks.
