What does the mock exam look like?

The duration of the mock exam depends on whether you choose to try just the written part, just the speaking part, or both components. The exams always follow the structure of the exam you choose, whether it's a CAE (3 hours 55 minutes) or an IELTS speaking exam (11-14 minutes). After the exam, you will receive immediate feedback from our examiner, along with additional ideas and study materials for further preparation.

Useful to know

What is the minimum entry level for the mock exam?

There is no minimum entry level for the mock exams, so you can try out various types and levels of exams. However, we recommend that your language level is at least somewhat aligned with the exam level. For example, if you want to try a C1 (Advanced, upper-intermediate) exam, we recommend at least a B2 (Upper-Intermediate, strong intermediate) language level.

Can I try more than one practice exam?

Yes! Whether you want to try out multiple types of exams or take the same exam multiple times, personalized feedback will help you prepare for the real exam in the most effective and tailored way.
