they're good. have no idea though how they decide whether a particular thing is B2 or C1 or any other level. I have had some experience and can't say the difference is huge, sometimes it seemed to me that the choice was completely arbitrary. Anyways, if there is nothing to do, podcasts are quite entertaining and EDUCATIONAL
