    Does anyone know about the exam system the Russian Ministry of Education (I think) put on every year? I would like something to work towards with my Russian studies. Is it possible to take these exams in Ireland?

    If they're the ones I'm thinking of, then Trinity's Department of Russian and Slavonic Languages is the only place in Ireland (and, I believe, one of relatively few outside of Russia) where these can be sat.

    Give the department a shout and they should be able to help you:

    Thank you both! Yes, it's the sort of DELE/DELF equivalent I would like to find. I've heard of TRKI before, think that's it.

    Thank you! I can't find sample papers though. They're pretty easy to find for other languages. If anyone has a link to them that'd be wonderful! Spasiba.
