Linguaskill Preparation
Cambridge's fast, modular English test — Reading and Listening are computer-adaptive, results come back quickly, and you can choose exactly which skills you need assessed.
How Linguaskill is structured
A modular test — sit all four skills, or only the ones you need. Reading and Listening are computer-adaptive, so length can vary slightly by candidate.
| Module | Duration | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Reading | ~40 min (up to 59) | Computer-adaptive — question difficulty adjusts to your answers in real time |
| Listening | ~40 min (up to 59) | Computer-adaptive, covering a range of everyday and workplace contexts |
| Writing | 55 min | Marked using hybrid marking — human examiners supported by automated technology |
| Speaking | 16 min | 5 parts, recorded and assessed using the same hybrid marking approach |

Adaptive-format practice
Practice suited to computer-adaptive Reading and Listening, alongside focused Writing and Speaking preparation using hybrid-marking-style feedback.
