The two main characteristic features of The European Language Certificates examinations are test papers based on language tasks formulated in a clear and understandable way and standardised marking criteria applied in an objective way. The comprehensively defined test specifications and uniform marking criteria ensure that these features apply to all examinations and are identical for all languages covered by The European Language Certificate programme. This equally applies to the test format. The mock examination presented here enables teachers and learners to simulate the precise conditions under which the examinations take place, both from the perspective of organising the test as well as from the point of view of the test materials. In this way, it is possible to fully prepare candidates for the examination. The mock examination can also be used for practice purposes, for examiner training and for general information.
