What is OPT, WHY?
1. More detailed results - Candidates receive a score for each skill (Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking) and usage of English. They also get an overall score for the exam on the Cambridge English Scale.
2. Straightforward and consistent - Results across our exams will report on the same scale. Scores on the Cambridge English Scale will replace the existing standardized scores and candidate profile.
3. Easy to compare - The alignment of our exams to CEFR to IELTS and to each other is clear. Results on the scale also give a greater insight into candidate progression from one exam to the next.
