imperfect tenseI am in Canada trying to get my french levels for work and they do not teach or use the french imperfect tense here. How do I skip these types of questions without it impacting my score? Do I simply skip? Will the program keep recommending these areas to study and keep adding them to my tests?

Are "à temps" and "à l'heure" not interchangeable? Bonjour. I used the first one in a quiz to fill in the blank, and it was marked wrong: "Étais-tu ________ (à temps) pour ton rendez-vous? Were you on time for your appointment?" But à temps was used in another quiz: "Il court ________ (pour) arriver au travail à temps. He runs [in order] to get to work on time."
