What are Cambridge ESOL exams?

Cambridge ESOL exams are English language exams for people whose first language is not English. They test how you actually use English to communicate on a day-to-day basis and in real-life situations. Each examination covers the four main language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing

The examinations are available at five levels, from Elementary to Upper Advanced level.

Key English Test (KET) tests your ability to deal with basic communication needs in everyday situations and is equivalent to a good elementary level.

Preliminary English Test (PET) demonstrates that you have enough English to cope with social and work situations and is equivalent to intermediate level in Egypt.

First Certificate in English (FCE) is for people with a high intermediate level and tests your ability in all the language skills. It is widely recognised in commerce and industry, and by educational institutions in Britain and overseas as proof of language ability. If you would like to apply, please download the FCE application form.

Certificate in Advanced English (CAE) is an advanced level exam and is suitable for people who require English for professional or study purposes. The exam focuses on the use of English language skills to achieve real-world tasks. It is also recognised by the majority of British universities as fulfilling English Language entrance requirements. If you would like to apply, please download the CAE application form.

Certificate in Proficiency in English (CPE) is at upper advanced level. It is recognised by British universities for admission purposes and for business and academic purposes around the world. If you would like to apply, please download the CPE application form.
