Find your English level
Each answer helps choose the next question. Choose a test of about 5, 10 or 30 minutes. Short tests estimate A1 to C1+; the full test estimates A1 to C2.
How the test works
Adaptive
Questions get easier or harder after each answer, so you spend your time on questions near your level.
Honest about certainty
You see your most likely level and how sure the test is. A short test gives a range, not a promise.
Different every time
Questions are chosen from a large bank, so a retake is a new test.
Private
Speaking recordings are processed for your assessment and stored privately. They are scheduled for deletion after 14 days; cleanup can happen later.

Questions
Is the test free?
Yes. The 5- and 10-minute tests need no account. The 30-minute test needs a free MicroEnglish account, so your result can be saved.
How accurate is it?
The 5-minute test gives an estimated starting point. The 30-minute test checks more skills and adds a skills profile. Results show uncertainty and have not been calibrated in a human validation study.
Can I use the result for a job or a university?
Use it to choose lessons and to plan your study. It is an online estimate, not a certificate. For official proof of level, take a supervised exam.
Why is there a daily limit?
Taking the same test again and again teaches the test, not English. A few sittings a day are enough, and your latest result is the one that counts.
What happens to my recordings?
Your speaking recordings are processed for assessment and stored privately. They are scheduled for deletion after 14 days. Cleanup runs separately, so removal can happen later or be delayed by technical problems.
