French man always in exam to achieve highest level (2,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mt everest

'highest level' is the definition.
(tallest mountain on Earth)

'french man always in exam' is the wordplay.
'french man' becomes 'm' (abbreviation for Monsieur - like 'Mr').
'always' becomes 'ever' (synonyms).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'exam' becomes 'test' (synonyms).
'ever' put within 'test' is 'teverest'.
'm'+'teverest'='MT EVEREST'

'to achieve' is the link.
