Cambridge Placement Test

All students wishing to take an evening or afternoon course in the UCD Applied Language Centre must take a placement test to assess the students' language level.

Placement Tests must be booked in advance. The cost of the placement test is €10 and is non-refundable.

Assess your level against the Council of Europe Self-Assessment Grid here (For your own assessment of which level placement test is best for you).

The table below gives an idea of how Council of Europe levels equate to Cambridge Main Suite levels.

Council of Europe Levels		Main Suite	BEC
C2	Mastery	CPE
C1	Effective Operational Proficiency	CAE	Higher
B2	Vantage	FCE	Vantage
B1	Threshold	PET	Prelim
A2	Waystage	KET
A1	Breakthrough

Students may also seek advice from an experienced Cambridge examiner on the day of the placement test.

Please submit form or contact ALC to confirm your attendance for the placement test.
