About the English test and certficate

The EnglishScore test is delivered on a mobile phone, so it requires different security measures and rules.

We use security features such as face monitoring technology through your smartphone’s selfie camera. You must be alone in a quiet place with your whole face clearly in the camera during the test.

These rules help give you and organisations confidence that your results are accurate and reliable.

To take the test and purchase a certificate, you will need to turn on your test security.

Once the test is complete, EnglishScore awards you with an internationally recognised CEFR level from A2 to C1 and a more detailed score between 0 and 599 aligned to the CEFR framework. This is a recognised global standard for describing language levels. You can use your CEFR score to compare results with tests such as IELTS, TOEIC and TOEFL.

The British Council EnglishScore Professional Certificate is recognised by leading employers and education institutions around the world.

You can use a Professional Certificate to help advance your career, including applying for a job or to enhance your CV.

EnglishScore is also available for businesses, universities and colleges that are looking to conduct English tests at scale. Learn more here:https://www.englishscore.com/for-business/

I used this app a year ago and it was great. But when I tried to take the test again, the app kept showing me an error message about the internet connection in the listening section. I know my connection was stable, but the app did not work properly. I could not finish the test and I wasted my time. Please fix this bug as soon as possible. Thank you.

This test was quite interesting. The first time I did it I got an extremely high score (576/600) but realized when I asked for the certificate the security features was turned off. After that I kept failing and failing and when you turn on the security features they reduced the categories from 4 to 3. It's like they want you to fail. How can the same person whose average score out of 576/600. Now I can't even get to 440 average from 3 categories. Seems very disturbing to me.

I had only a couple of questions left, but then it told me it couldn't load in any more questions. Lost all my progress and couldn't take another test since the app stopped responding at all. And no, my internet was secure.
