FAQ
Is my response data uploaded anywhere?

What is CEFR?
The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages — a standardized scale (A1 to C2) describing language proficiency, widely used for course placement and certification.
Is this an official CEFR test?
No — it's a self-assessment based on official can-do descriptors, useful for a rough estimate. An accredited exam is required for certified proficiency results.
How is the level estimated?
Based on which can-do statements you confidently check, working from A1 upward to the highest level where most statements are checked.
