The SAT® TestThe SAT® (Scholastic Aptitude Test) is a globally recognized college admission test that lets you show colleges what you know and how well you can apply that knowledge. It tests your knowledge of reading, writing and math — subjects that are taught every day in high school classrooms. Most students take the SAT® during their junior or senior year of high school, and almost all colleges and universities use the SAT® to make admission decisions.

The TOEFL iBT® TestThe Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL®) evaluates the ability to use and understand English in an academic setting. The TOEFL iBT® test measures all four language skills: reading, listening, speaking and writing.

The TOEFL® test has a high reputation for quality, fairness and academic accuracy which makes it the most widely accepted English language test in the world.

THE TOEFL® Junior TestThe TOEFL® Junior Test measures the language proficiency needed for life and learning in English-speaking primary schools. Designed specifically for upper primary school students (middle school) of age 10 –14 years, the TOEFL® Junior Test measures listening and reading ability as well as knowledge of Language Form and Meaning in both academic and social contexts. The tests are used for placement and to measure progress as students learn the English language.

The TOEFL® Primary TestThe TOEFL® Primary Test measures listening comprehension, reading comprehension and the speaking ability of students ages 8+ for whom English is a foreign language. Teachers and schools use scores for placement and to measure progress as students learn the English language.

The TOEIC® Test The Test of English for International Communication (TOEIC®) test is a global standard for assessing English proficiency for business.

The TOEIC® Test is a useful assessment tool for a cross-section of companies and institutions to aid in recruitment decisions, give employees and job-seekers a competitive edge, guide development of training programs and identify language and communication needs in the workforce.
