The Global Scale of English for test takers

When getting ready for an exam, use the GSE to help you prepare and build up your confidence

 

 

Prepare for exam success

Unlike other language measurement tools, the Global Scale of English (GSE) helps build your confidence by showing your skills progress on a simple, numerical scale. So instead of spending hours studying and repeating exams, the GSE can help show your how your skills have grown over a shorter time period.

The GSE can help you stay motivated, celebrate your progress and discover what skills you need to build next.
