How it runs

  • Reading and listening

    Each test runs against the clock. Your answers are saved as you go, and the test is marked when you hand it in or when its time runs out.

    In the listening test each recording plays twice, as in the exam. You cannot replay or skip it, and if playback stops it continues from the same point, even after a reload.

  • Writing

    You write each task in a box that counts your words. Check your texts against the prompt checklist, then give each text one rating from 0 to 3 on the official holistic scale. The ratings give your estimated points.

  • Speaking

    The 10 minutes of preparation cover tasks 1, 2 and 3, and the speaking timer shows their cards together. Run each card in the speaking timer, then rate your answers from 0 to 3 in each category of the official scale to record your estimated points.

  • Result

    When every test has points, the overview predicts APTO or NO APTO. APTO needs 30 of 50 in each group.
