Préparation à cette qualification

  • Standard: Listening Comprehension 42 items, 40 min; Language Form and Meaning 42 items, 25 min; Reading Comprehension 42 items, 50 min; each section 200–300, total 600–900.

Couverture pédagogique encore nécessaire

  • Practice sets are original and fixed-form. ETS equates each form, so a raw count cannot be turned into a 200–300 section score. Speaking and Writing get self-check rubrics and teacher review, never a predicted 0–16 score. The paid Official Guide practice test is not used.
