Estimated from your number of correct answers with the approximate chart the test provider publishes. Our practice tests are not yet equated to the score scale the test itself uses, so read it as a range. Not a CELPIP score. Writing and Speaking: Estimated level, based on the published CELPIP Performance Standards dimensions. Our scoring is not yet equated to the score scale the test itself uses, so read it as a range. Not a CELPIP score.
Holding your level down
The report picks the one pattern to fix first, with a retry aimed at it.
Ranges, never a single number
Listening and Reading ranges come from the test provider’s approximate raw-score chart. Writing and Speaking ranges come from several independent scoring passes.
Your sentence, revised
Writing and Speaking feedback quotes what you wrote or said and shows it revised, next to the dimension it affects.
Compared with the published results
Each level sits beside the published 2024 results, so you see how far CLB 9 is and how many test takers reach it.

How it works
Three steps, then repeat.
Take a task set or a full test
A short set for one task, or the full test in one sitting. Both run on a clock that never pauses.
See your range and the one thing to fix
Levels as ranges, every miss explained, and the single pattern that costs you the most.
Practise that task with a new set
A set you have not seen, the same task type. Then check the change.
How accurate we are
Every figure with its sample size. Or “not yet measured”.
Scoring consistency (the estimate you see, same response scored repeatedly)

Practice difficulty vs. published 2024 levels
Not yet measured
Target: deviation within ±0.25 level. Published when the measurement exists.
Reported and corrected items
Not yet measured
Target: published monthly. Published when the measurement exists.
Estimate vs. reported result
Not yet measured
Target: MAE ≤ 1 CLB. Published when the measurement exists. It needs test takers who share their result — you can be one.
Exam mode
Timed to the published format. Nothing softened.
When a section starts, the product steps aside: a neutral screen and a fixed bar with section, part and time.
One play per recording
No replay, no seeking. The questions and their options appear on screen when the recording ends.
No pause, in any mode
Once “Begin section” starts the clock, it runs to the end.
Speaking runs itself
Preparation time, then recording starts and stops on its own, then it is saved.
Device check first
Sound, and the microphone when Speaking is included, are checked before any clock starts.

Why are there no sample answers?
Memorised answers are easy to spot and hold your level down; the test provider warns that responses that are not your own can cancel a score. Feedback here starts from your own sentences and shows them revised.
Do the questions come from the test provider?
No. Every question is written for celpip9 on the published structure, and checked by independent gates before it is used. We are not affiliated with the test provider.
How hard are the practice tests?
Built to the published 2024 difficulty profile · Measured: not yet measured. Every test is built to the same profile, so none is labelled easier or harder. How difficulty is set
Is my level estimate my CELPIP® score?
No. It is an estimated level, based on the published Performance Standards dimensions, shown as a range.
