Did you know that there are different exams that can certify your competence in English at international level?
In examenlish.com you’ll find a collection with the sort of exams that will endorse your English level and thus help you continue with your studies, improve your CV, and get a new job …
I would say that the interface of the web site is not wonderful; however this web page contains interesting information about these exams.
What we most like about this online resource are the free tests that are offered for each of the exams. These tests give us an idea about what we can expect when doing such assessments. The web page also allows us to gauge our English level and calculates the equivalent of the official exam that we would have passed.
Let’s have a look at these exams and their official web sites:
