Why CEPT?

1- Fast and Reliable
  The test takes only 30 minutes, but extensive research and pretesting ensures that the Cambridge English Placement Test is reliable and valid.
2- International
  The Cambridge English Placement Test is an international exam that features a variety of accents and text sourced from a range of English-speaking countries.
3- Suitable for All Students
  You use the same test for all your students as it is computer adaptive. Based on the student’s responses, the test becomes progressively easier or more difficult until a consistent level of ability is achieved, and the student’s level of English can be identified.
4- Easy to Manage
  The test is online so you order tests when you want and students take it whenever you choose. You manage your test orders and view and print results from a dedicated administration site.
5- User-Friendly
  Students can choose to take a tutorial before the test, access on-screen help at any time and see a timer and progress bar during the test. Should any problems with internet connectivity occur, the candidate does not have to start again – they can simply pick up the test where they left off.
6- Secure
  The test is taken under secure conditions and, because the test is adaptive, each student gets a ‘unique’ test, seeing different items and in a different order. The item bank is encrypted for security and new items are being added to the bank on a regular basis.
7- Immediate, Meaningful Results
  Cambridge English Placement Test results are instant, helping you make informed decisions about which classes and courses are most suitable for your students. You decide whether to show them their results at the end of the test or not.
Results are presented in a clear, easy-to-understand report which can be produced for one student or groups of students.
