Why this question matters
Knowing your CEFR level is the first step toward any serious language goal. "I speak some Spanish" tells nobody anything actionable. "I'm a B1 working toward B2" tells your tutor, your textbook, your study app, and your future employer exactly what you can do.
Most self-assessment is wrong. The most common pattern: years of high-school instruction → "I'm intermediate" → take DELE B2 → fail. A 5-minute test prevents that.
The CEFR scale, fast
Six levels, A1 (beginner) through C2 (near-native). Most adult learners cluster between A2 and B2. C1 is the threshold for university study + many jobs. C2 is rare; it's earned, not faked.
Each level describes specific can-do statements. "At B2, you can interact with native speakers comfortably across many topics. You can argue, explain, and produce clear, detailed writing." That's a falsifiable claim — we test against it.
What our test measures
Our 5-minute free test uses reading comprehension, grammar in context, and a listening passage. The questions are CEFR-tagged and adaptively selected — you get items targeted at your level, not a fixed sequence everyone takes.
The 30-minute paid test ($4.99) adds writing and speaking grading against the same CEFR rubrics. It tells you not just your level but also which skill is weakest — and what to do about it.
