What it KET?
The Cambridge Key English Test (KET) is the first level of Cambridge exams in English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL). It is an elementary level exam. KET enables candidates to demonstrate a level of English that is useful when travelling in English speaking countries. Successful candidates receive a certificate awarded by University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations.

KET is based on language used in real life situations and covers the four language skills - reading, writing, listening and speaking. It provides an assessment of practical skills, and encourages the development of abilities which can be used while travelling, as well as in study and working situations.

KET is an ideal first step for those wishing to progress towards the Preliminary English Test and the other Cambridge ESOL exams.

What does the exam involve?
KET has three papers: Reading and Writing | Listening | Speaking.

Each paper is returned to Cambridge for marking and assessment, except the Speaking Test, which is conducted by British Council recruited examiners who examine candidates face to face. All examiners are accredited by Cambridge ESOL. For more detailed information visit the Cambridge website.
