How these pages are written.
Official sources, dates, and what’s still unclear.
Each page starts from the syllabus, the papers and the calendar published by the body that runs the exam: ministry, service-public.fr, CNFPT, CNG, bar association or faculty. The figures come from those sources, not from a test-prep blog.
When information varies by faculty or competition, it’s stated plainly, and any uncertainty is flagged. Last checked: October 28, 2026. Spotted an error or a missing page? Write to us at [email protected].
Frequently asked questions.
What candidates ask us most about Summry, whatever exam they’re preparing for.
Does Summry work for my exam?
Yes, as soon as you have a course you can import: PDF, Word, PowerPoint, a photo of notes, lecture audio, a YouTube video or text. Summry turns it into study sheets, flashcards and quizzes, whatever the exam or course.
Is the information checked?
Every page is built from the exam’s official sources: syllabus, papers, coefficients and calendar. The sources are cited at the bottom of the page, with the date they were checked. A date that hasn’t been published yet is flagged as such.
Why do some pages mention the 2027 session?
Because that’s the next session open to candidates. When the official calendar hasn’t been published yet, the page gives the usual window and says it is still to be confirmed.
Is this allowed by my institution?
Summry doesn’t sit the exam for you: it helps you understand and remember your course, like study sheets. Just check your institution’s internal rules on AI use.
