Preguntas frecuentes

Is this the official CELPIP Writing test?

No. This is an independent practice course. The prompts, model answers and questions are original and only follow the task types of the real test. For official samples, use the free practice tests on the CELPIP website.

What does the certificate of completion show?

It shows that you finished this course and scored at least 80% on its final assessment. It is not a CELPIP result or level, and it cannot be used as proof of English for immigration, citizenship, work or school.

Can this course score my writing or predict my CELPIP level?

No. Official Writing responses are rated by four to six trained CELPIP raters. The quizzes, model answers and self-check lists here are practice feedback only, not an official CELPIP score.

How long should my Writing answers be?

About 150–200 words for each task. There is a word counter under each task. A little over or under is fine, but being far over or under may lower your score.

Do I need the Writing test for Canadian citizenship?

The official CELPIP website says the CELPIP-General LS test, which has no Writing test, covers the Listening and Speaking skills for the citizenship language requirement. Always check the Government of Canada's current requirements before you book.

How long is the final assessment?

It has 35 multiple-choice questions in 35 minutes, drawn at random from the whole course. It tests your knowledge of the tasks and of good writing; the real Writing test asks you to write two responses in 53 minutes.

¿El certificado está acreditado o reconocido oficialmente?

No. Es un certificado de finalización privado, solo para tus conocimientos. No está reconocido, acreditado ni aprobado por ningún gobierno, organismo de licencias, regulador ni institución educativa, y no sustituye ninguna licencia, certificación ni formación exigida por la ley.
