About the practice questions
This bank of 200 practice questions is designed to help you to
prepare for the EnglishScore mobile English test. The questions are
written to the same standard as the questions you will see in the
exam, with answers and transcripts provided for each question.
The questions are divided into three sections:
- Grammar and vocabulary
- Reading
- Listening
Each section includes questions for the four CEFR levels that
EnglishScore covers: A2, B1, B2, C1. At the end of each section,
you will find the answers and the listening transcripts.
The questions cover the Personal, Public and Professional
domains, using authentic language and contexts.
Note that EnglishScore is a mobile test, so the question format in the real
test is different from what you see in this bank, e.g. in the mobile test,
you will need to tap the correct answer for the multiple-choice questions.
However, this question bank will help you to prepare and practise for the
test and to understand the different question types we use in our test.
For more information about the test-taking experience and other
useful information, please see the EnglishScore Core Skills Test
Guide. You can also visit our website at www.englishscore.com.
