Settling in the UK or applying for British citizenship means passing two tests — the Life in the UK Test and, for most routes, an approved English speaking & listening test (SELT). PrepaUK prepares you for both in a single app, in the exact format of the real exams.
And from 26 March 2027 the English level for settlement rises from B1 to B2 (Statement of Changes HC 1691). Tell the app when you plan to apply and it automatically targets the right level for you.
WHAT THE APP CONTAINS
▸ 1,000+ Life in the UK practice questions in the official format (24 questions, 45 minutes, pass mark 18/24), covering all five chapters of the official handbook
▸ 500 English listening questions with clear British-English audio at A1, A2, B1 and B2, playable offline
▸ 60 guided speaking scenarios with model outlines and self-recording, framed for the approved SELT tests (Trinity GESE, IELTS Life Skills, LanguageCert, PTE Home)
▸ 500 vocabulary flashcards on UK life (housing, health, work, money, civic life) with audio and spaced repetition
▸ 12 realistic mock exams — weighted Life in the UK papers, English listening sets by level, and full-journey mocks — with a per-exam timer and a CEFR readiness estimate
▸ A Life in the UK revision reader and a UK-life FAQ in English and Arabic
▸ Smart revision that spots your weak topics and brings them back first
THE FIVE HANDBOOK CHAPTERS (LIFE IN THE UK)
▸ The values and principles of the UK
▸ What is the UK (the four nations, symbols, currency)
▸ A long and illustrious history
▸ A modern, thriving society
▸ The UK government, the law and your role
The bank is weighted like the real test — history and government carry the most questions.
ENGLISH LEVEL BY ROUTE
▸ Family visa (entry) — A1 · Family visa (extension) — A2
▸ Settlement / ILR — B1 before 26 March 2027, B2 on or after
▸ Skilled Worker — B2 · British citizenship — B1 (plus the Life in the UK Test)
The app sets your target level from your route and application date, and you can change it in Settings.
EVERY ANSWER IS EXPLAINED
Each question comes with a clear explanation that points to the key fact or the line in the audio, and shows why the other options are wrong — the elimination method that wins marks on exam day.
TRACK YOUR LEVEL
A readiness score for each test, updated after every session, shows how close you are to the pass mark (18/24 for Life in the UK) or the CEFR level required for your English route. Mock-exam history and per-topic mastery bars included.
INTERFACE LANGUAGES
The interface is available in English, French and Arabic (Arabic in full right-to-left display). The training content stays in English — the language of the exam.
