Test according to CEFR-criteria
For UM and non-UM participants
For some of the languages, we also offer a full test in accordance with CEFR- criteria. Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) describes foreign language proficiency at six levels. The speaking and listening skills tests are administered by the teacher, followed by an independent writing and reading test. The full test takes roughly 2,5 hours to complete.
