Érettségi Angol study plan

Diagnose current reading level by completing one full-length reading task under timed conditions and logging every wrong answer with its cause (vocabulary gap, misread question stem, or time pressure).

Build a personal vocabulary list of 60 high-frequency exam words drawn from your diagnostic texts, grouped by topic (environment, technology, education, health).

Practise skimming three short articles to identify the main idea of each within 90 seconds per text, writing a one-sentence summary for each.

Review the four main Hungarian érettségi reading task types (true/false with justification, matching headings, gap-fill from a list, short answer) and note the exact instruction wording each uses.

Complete two full reading papers strictly timed at 45 minutes each and score them against the answer key, recording the score.

Practise scanning for specific detail: answer 20 detail questions by locating the exact sentence in the text and underlining the evidence before choosing.

Master the ten grammar structures most tested in the language-use section (present perfect vs past simple, conditionals, passive voice, reported speech, modal verbs, relative clauses, articles, prepositions, gerund vs infinitive, comparatives).

Do 40 sentence-level transformation and gap-fill items and correct every error with a written rule reminder.

Reduce reading time per paper to 40 minutes while keeping at least 80% accuracy by practising question-first reading order.

Handle unknown vocabulary: complete two texts without a dictionary, inferring meaning from context, then verify and record 30 new words.

Complete 50 mixed language-use items (word formation, collocations, phrasal verbs, linking words) and reach 80% correct.

Write paraphrases of eight difficult sentences from reading texts to prove comprehension, not translation.

Sit one full mock of the reading and language-use sections back to back under official timing and record both scores.

Analyse the writing task types (informal email, formal letter, article, opinion essay) and identify the required length, register, and layout conventions for each.

Write one 180–200 word opinion essay in 35 minutes using a clear four-paragraph structure with topic sentences.

Self-edit that essay against a checklist (task achievement, paragraphing, linking words, tense consistency, spelling).

Write two guided writing tasks (one informal email, one formal letter) in 35 minutes each, applying the correct register and opening/closing formulas.

Build a bank of 25 linking devices and 15 formal/informal register pairs and use at least ten of them correctly in the two texts.

Complete one reading paper focused only on inference and writer's-attitude questions, justifying each answer in writing.

Reduce grammar and spelling errors in your own writing to fewer than five per 200 words.

Write one article and one opinion essay in 35 minutes each, each with a clear introduction, developed body, and conclusion.

Practise listening under exam conditions: complete two full listening papers (short dialogues, announcements, longer monologue) with audio played twice only.

Train note-taking: transcribe key information from three short monologues using abbreviations, then answer detail questions from your notes.

Identify and drill the listening traps (numbers, dates, negation, similar-sounding distractors) by logging every error type.

Complete two more listening papers and reach 75%+ accuracy, focusing on the question types you missed most in week 6.

Prepare and rehearse spoken answers to the typical speaking topics (self-introduction, daily life, school and work, hobbies, plans, a picture description, an opinion prompt).

Record yourself speaking for two minutes on four different topics and review each recording for fluency, tense accuracy, and filler words.

Practise the interactive speaking tasks (situation dialogue, role-play, comparing two options) with a partner or by self-recording both roles.

Sit one complete mock exam covering reading, listening, and language use under official timing and score each section.

Write one exam-style composition in 35 minutes and self-mark it against the official assessment criteria.

Deliver a full simulated speaking exam (introduction, picture description, opinion task) recorded end to end.

Review every error from the whole eight weeks and produce a final one-page list of your five remaining weak points with a fix for each.
