英検3級、準2級、2級の2次試験の流れを英検のバーチャル二次試験でみてみた。
このバーチャル二次試験で、2次試験の流れはイメージできるようになっている。音声と吹き出しにより、実際の面接官と受験者のやり取りが確認できるようになっている。
ただ、このアニメーションのようにすらすらと答えるのはかなり難しそうとは思われる。特に2級の受験者の音声を聞くと、かなり発音がよくてすらすら回答しているので、これを見るとちょっと心配になりそうな気がするが、たぶんこれはかなり理想的な回答のはずなので、あんまり心配しすぎないほうがよいかもしれない。
なるべくこのアニメーションのように応答できるように目標と考えておけばよいと思う。自分が2級を受験した当時、こんなにすらすら答えられなかったはずだが、一応合格はできたので。
