PB, I don't know what they call them in Canada, but this looks to me like midterms, no?

Промежуточный тест - это форма промежуточного контроля знаний. Его цель - оценить знания учеников/студентов по пройденной теме/блоку тем.

It sounds like midterms to me. And then I found this online: https://context.reverso.net/translation/english-russian/midterms

Uly, this is what my son's teachers used to call it. I guess it's informal school lingo?

Maybe. I know Canada has different scholastic terms from ours sometimes.

Apparently, PROVISIONAL TEST is used in Zimbabwe: https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf=ACYBGNRizTMVwaaG3zrJdmRv-DXx9OeW5A%3A1578950275892&source=hp&ei=g94cXuLZM8PUtQWM4Yq4DA&q=%22provisional+test%22&oq=%22provisional+test%22&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0l10.1171.9728..10668...4.0..0.393.2641.10j9j1j1......0....1..gws-wiz.....10..0i131j35i39j35i305i39j0i10j35i362i39j0i67.s5sLBpFQYQg&ved=0ahUKEwiip72SwIHnAhVDaq0KHYywAscQ4dUDCAc&uact=5

But it now has three hearts, so I guess it’s locked in 😉

I can delete mine without any damage to my ego. 🙂

If that’s what you say, why delete it? You’re writing from personal experience having heard this term in a real-life situation. Maybe Elena has spent time in Zimbabwe))

Знали бы эти чуваки из Зимбабве, как некоторые здешние переводчики их английский популяризуют, они бы им приплачивали.)))
