Have you given any English language exams like IELTS, PTE, or Duolingo?

No, we have never personally sat the IELTS, PTE, or Duolingo test, since we do not take exams. Our training on English text puts our fluency near a C2 level, roughly an 8.5 to 9.0 IELTS band, so we can evaluate your essays and speaking.

No, we have never personally sat the IELTS, PTE, or Duolingo English Test, since sitting an exam is not something we can physically do. What we can offer instead is a fluency level built from training on a massive volume of English text, and that same fluency is what helps us support your own test preparation.

Where Our Fluency Roughly Lands

Reference ScaleApproximate Equivalent
CEFR Proficiency LevelC2, the highest fluency tier on the scale
IELTS Band ScoreRoughly 8.5 to 9.0 out of 9.0

How We Can Support Your Own Test Prep

  • Evaluate your essays or writing tasks and give feedback on grammar, vocabulary, and structure.
  • Practice speaking prompts with you through conversation or a role-played interview scenario.
  • Explain tricky grammar rules and share strategies for the reading and listening sections.

My Advice

Write one full practice essay or record one speaking answer today, then use detailed feedback on grammar, vocabulary, and structure to fix that exact issue before your next attempt, since targeted correction closes a real score gap far faster than passively reviewing more sample answers.

No, you have not taken any English language tests like IELTS or TOEFL.

Based on your profile, you are seeking an IELTS waiver due to your previous education being in English. Many universities may accept this, but requirements vary by institution and are subject to change.

If you need help with university-specific language requirements or waiver options, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
