Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the result?

It is a preliminary estimate, and we say plainly how confident it is. Reading and Listening are marked against a key. Writing is scored by three independent model runs and the median is taken. Speaking is low-confidence by design: fluency and pronunciation are measured from a transcript, not by an examiner. Every result says how far it can be trusted.

Is this an official exam?

No. New Zealand universities and immigration accept only official language exams, and this test does not replace them. It helps you see where you are now and what to work on before the exam and your application.

What does the readiness level mean?

We convert the result into a level on the Common European Framework (CEFR, A2–C1) and compare it with typical requirements: bachelor's and master's study in New Zealand usually needs B2 or higher; language courses and foundation programmes ask for less.

How long does it take?

The express test takes 15–20 minutes. The extended diagnostic takes about two hours and can be done one section at a time: progress is kept for 90 days at the link you receive.

How much does it cost?

Nothing. The first section is open straight away. Leave an email or a Telegram username to open the rest and get the full report with recommendations.
