English level test results:

Thanks to your dedication and perseverance, you managed to take firm steps along the path of English learning. Now you feel like the time’s come to confirm that you’ve made it past the upper-intermediate level and to put your name in the advanced hall of fame. The best way to do so is with an English placement test designed for the C1 level, like the one offered by ABA English.

To get even better results than you expect, you’ll have to prepare yourself by using a learning method that covers all the topics that are evaluated by C1 level English tests. It’s also important to make sure that the method you choose won’t turn your study time into a heavy burden that’s impossible to bear.

The Smart Learning® method, developed by ABA English, is perfect for this. Besides being based on the educational approaches from different universities, Cambridge, and the CEFR, it offers you personalized study material you need so that you learn in a dynamic and very entertaining way.

What does the C1 English test consist of?

You’ve developed your language skills and have reached a level of proficiency in English. You’ve come so far that when you go through a checklist of all the topics included at the C1 level, you have the peace of mind of being familiar with almost all of them.

Nevertheless, you want to be sure that your level of knowledge of the English language really corresponds to the advanced level. You don’t want any surprises – like accidentally finding out that your level is actually closer to B2 and that your goal of C1 level English hasn’t yet been achieved.

We’d like to recommend a resource that you’ll find very useful: the C1 online English test from ABA English. You simply answer a series of strategically formulated questions to get a quick result that will give you a clear idea of how much you know about the language.

Are you ready to take the C1 level English test?

Remember that practice makes perfect. So, if you want to get excellent results on your C1 test, it’s important for you to spend a few minutes each day perfecting your English language skills.

Grammar and vocabulary

You know the idiomatic expressions. You can paraphrase and easily determine the context of the terms you read or hear because you know their range of meanings.

Reading and writing

You produce and understand literary, journalistic, academic, and technical texts. You organize, structure, and make distinctions between the implicit meaning, the nuance, and the details in a document, no matter how complex.

Listening and speaking

You can interact without any problems and at the same speed as a native speaker, understanding the different types of accents. You use listening and inference to be able to understand and express yourself without difficulty, even when you don’t have the whole context or when a conversation is unstructured.
