Poziom B2 jako węzłowy etap w osiąganiu biegłości językowej
B2 level as the pivotal stage of achieving language proficiency

Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of the article is to highlight the specificity of the B2 level which, though ‘bearing the same letter’ as B1, differs from it immensely, both qualitatively and quantitively. First, the authors recall the former intermediate level names and their descriptors, then they provide a detailed analysis of the Vantage level requirements defined in the major European and Polish documents. In the authors’ opinion, in recent years the requirements for B2 learners of Polish have been gradually lowered. To prove their thesis, they have analysed selected content of the B2 State Proficiency Test and learners’ written production.
