How to read these figures
Each exercise of a round targets candidates who meet a set of criteria (occupation, French level, experience, region, etc.). Its minimum score is the score from which candidates meeting those criteria were invited: a candidate with that score but without the criteria was not covered by the exercise. The criteria of each exercise are listed on the official page.
