RESULTS

Fair and secure

Aptis gives candidates equal opportunities to show their best English. The test has been specifically developed to be culturally neutral providing a fair testing platform for all candidates.

There are multiple versions of Aptis test questions with new materials being introduced all the time. This means that candidates will not get the same questions as people sitting next to them.

Accurate and reliable results

We have more than 70 years’ experience in English assessment.

Aptis scores are accurate and reliable: research shows that candidates receive similar results on multiple attempts as our expert examiners mark the writing and speaking skills. Visit our research page for more information about the scientific research we put into language skill testing.

The scores you receive are scaled to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). The test provides an overall CEFR level for each skill taken (A1-C). If you test all four skills you will receive a report that relates to an overall CEFR level. The CEFR is used worldwide as a framework of reference for English proficiency ability.
