Cambridge Eng Proficiency Practice Tests ##BEST##
To do well on English proficiency exams, test-takers must be able to understand and communicate academic concepts given in lectures, academic texts, and conversations in university settings. Recordings and texts use advanced, academic language similar to what can be heard in an English-speaking university classroom. For that reason, skills that are important for a university classroom, such as note-taking and organizing essays, are key for success. In order to prepare for the test, students should become comfortable with academic English and practice with material similar to the real exams.

International students applying to programs taught in English must provide proof their of English proficiency as part of their applications. This ensures that they have the necessary English skills to understand academic writing, produce scholarly writing, and communicate effectively with their supervisor. Here is an overview of the four most widely-accepted English proficiency tests: the TOEFL, the IELTS, the CAE, and the CPE.
The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is probably the best-known and most commonly used English proficiency test. Along with the IELTS, it is one of the two tests that are usually accepted by American universities. The TOEFL was designed specifically to test knowledge of English as it is used in a college or university setting. The current test is called TOEFL iBT.

As global student mobility and courses offered in English are growing, new tests are developing. Always confirm with your specific colleges and universities which tests they prefer and if there is a minimum score required for your desired program. An institution may admit you provisionally until you can achieve the appropriate level of proficiency through an intensive English language program on campus. Conversely, a very good score may allow you to skip a basic first-year English composition course and take more advanced offerings.
Most U.S. undergraduate programs accept either the ACT or SAT. They are both primarily multiple-choice tests with a writing component (ACT Writing is optional) that seek to quantify what students know and their ability to apply that knowledge, based on a college-preparatory curriculum in secondary school. The ACT is organized by subject area (Math, Science, Reading, English) plus Writing. The SAT has three parts covering similar aspects, divided into Critical Reading, Math, and Writing. SAT Math features some free-response questions (writing your numerical answer in a grid) and SAT Writing includes a short essay. Students can register for the SAT online or by paper with an SAT International Representative in certain countries. The SAT is offered outside the United States six times between October and June. ACT has five test dates outside the United States; students testing outside the United States or Canada will typically need to register online and pay by credit card (check the ACT website for details). Both ACT and the College Board offer extensive practice materials, and career and college planning resources.
The tests are also not comparable in terms of the scope of their reading comprehension items. The GEPT-A has a more even distribution in scope across its items than does the iBT, with a much lower proportion of narrow-scope items than the iBT. This seems appropriate for a test that purports to assess English at a high level of proficiency, whereas a greater emphasis on items of narrow and very narrow scope would be appropriate on tests targeting lower proficiency levels. The response formats used on the two tests are also not comparable, most notably due to the extensive use of short answer items on the GEPT-A in contrast to the iBT which only uses multiple-choice answer items. In addition, the score distributions of the two tests were not equivalent in this study, suggesting that the GEPT-A may have been more difficult than the iBT.
Graduates demonstrate the disposition, knowledge and skills expected of professional educators as articulated by regional, state and national accreditation bodies. They understand language as a system, the structure and nature of language, and language variation and change. They understand language acquisition and literacy development, including practices for reading skills/comprehension in a first language at different levels; first and second language differences for reading instruction; English phonemic awareness for students not literate in their first language; effect of first language literacy on second language learning/literacy; role of oral language development in literacy development for ELLs; formal/informal reading assessment with English learners; listening/speaking/reading/writing vocabulary, and practices for developing writing skills/writing tools; formal writing elements; oral/aural English fluency at different proficiency levels; social and academic content English; metalinguistic skills and vocabulary for cognitive, academic, and language proficiency. They utilize research-based ESL approaches and best practices and apply socio-cultural and socio-emotional considerations. They understand the role of community, families, and schools in ELL education and the laws pertaining to education of ELLs.
