Each Examinizer test has 25 multiple-choice questions and takes about 25 minutes. Questions are drawn from a pool and cover all proficiency levels from A1 to C2 on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
How scoring works
Your result depends on which questions you answer correctly and at what difficulty level. The test adapts as you progress: stronger answers unlock harder questions, weaker answers bring easier ones. At the end, the system calculates your CEFR level based on your overall performance pattern, not just the number of correct answers.
What CEFR levels mean
A1 and A2 are basic levels — you can understand simple phrases and introduce yourself. B1 and B2 are independent levels — you can handle most everyday situations and express yourself on familiar topics. C1 and C2 are proficient levels — you can understand complex texts and express yourself fluently and precisely.
Most employers asking for "working proficiency" in a language expect B2. Academic programmes typically require B2 or C1.
Certificate accuracy
Our question pools are reviewed periodically to ensure difficulty calibration stays accurate. The CEFR level on your certificate reflects your performance on that specific test session. If you feel the result does not match your actual level, you can retake the test — each attempt is independent.
What the certificate does not cover
Examinizer tests assess reading comprehension and applied language knowledge. They do not test speaking or writing. For roles requiring verified oral proficiency, a separate speaking assessment is needed.
