What the estimate covers
Section-by-section breakdown.
Literacy
Reading and writing ability in English. Includes spelling, word recognition, and sentence-level tasks.
Comprehension
Listening and reading comprehension across varied content types. Speed and accuracy both matter.
Conversation
Spoken and written English in conversation-style prompts. Naturalness and coherence are key.
Production
Active language generation — writing and speaking responses under time constraints. Vocabulary range is a significant factor here.
Your realistic range
Not a best-case prediction. A calibrated estimate based on your actual section inputs and exam timeline.
Your main bottleneck
The one section most holding your overall score back — not just your lowest score. Knowing this changes where to focus.
Your fastest path
The 1–2 sections where focused improvement will move your overall score the most, based on your current profile.
