testlify CEFR test work?

How does the testlify CEFR test work?

This CEFR Test is designed to assess language proficiency according to the same standards as the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), a widely recognized system developed by the Council of Europe in 2001. 

Both the Testlify CEFR Test and the CEFR divide language proficiency into six levels, ranging from A1 to C2, which can be grouped into three broad categories: Basic User, Independent User, and Proficient User. 

Unlike some other tests, this does not assign a score to a candidate unless they have reached a certain level of proficiency. This means that it is possible for a candidate to take the Test and not reach even the lowest CEFR level. This approach allows you to accurately assess the language ability of your candidates at all proficiency levels.
