  • How to prepare for use of English FCE?

    Cambridge English: First (FCE)
    The examination is designed for students who have a satisfactory command of the English language and is recognised by many educational institutions and universities. There are four papers in the exam: Writing, Reading and use of English, Listening and Speaking.
  • How do I study for the FCE exam?

    The focus of this part is mainly grammatical (articles, auxiliaries, prepositions, pronouns, verb tenses, etc.) and lexico-grammatical (phrasal verbs, linkers, fixed expressions, etc.). The answer is always one word only, but there may be more than one possible correct answer for some gaps.

Most Cambridge English Qualifications are now reporting results on the

Cambridge English Scale.

For B2 First, B2 First for Schools, C1 Advanced and C2 Proficiency, candidates receive an individual score for each of the four skills - reading, writing, listening, speaking - and Use of English. In the live exams, each of the skills and Use of English are equally weighted, and a candidate's overall score is calculated by adding all of the individual scores together and dividing by five (and then rounding to the nearest whole number). For B1 Preliminary, B1 Preliminary for Schools and B1 Business Preliminary, B2 Business Vantage and C1 Business Higher, candidates receive an individual score for the four skills - reading, writing, listening and speaking. In the live exams, each skill is equally weighted, and a candidate's overall score is calculated by adding all of the individual scores together and dividing by four (and then rounding to the nearest whole number). For A2 Key and A2 Key for Schools, candidates receive an individual score for each paper in the exam - Reading and Writing, Listening, and Speaking. In the live exams, the Reading and Writing paper tests two skills so the score is doubled. A candidate's overall score is calculated by adding all of the individual scores together and dividing by four (and then rounding to the nearest whole number). A candidate's grade and Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) level are based on their performance across the whole qualification, and there is no requirement to achieve a minimum score in each paper. The following tables can be used as guidance to help you convert practice test scores to Cambridge English Scale scores. Please note that these only apply when using official Cambridge

English practice tests.

The conversion tables are intended to help you provide an indication of your students' readiness to take the relevant qualification. The scores you provide may not always reflect the results the students may achieve in a Cambridge English live exam. They should not be used to try to predict precise scores in the live exam, but can be a useful diagnostic tool, indicating areas of relative strength and weakness. The scores needed on any given exam to achieve the scores on the Cambridge English Scale shown in the tables below will vary due to a number of factors, so scores close to CEFR boundaries need to be reviewed carefully. We recommend that this is approximately three Cambridge English Scale score points above and below the score needed to achieve the level, e.g. 157-163 for Level B2. Students who achieve only slightly higher than the Cambridge English Scale score for a given level on a practice test may not achieve that level in the live exam, and we recommend that they continue working to improve so that they reach the desired level.Level A1 B2
