SUCCEEDING YOUR TEST

Can I Take the Test Without Lessons?

The YOLAPT is a proficiency exam. Like IELTS, TOEFL, or DELF, you can register and sit for the test directly without taking any course first. But here’s what to consider:

✅ Advantages

  • Save time if you need proof quickly
  • Show your true level without coaching
  • Use the certificate immediately for jobs or study

⚠️ Risks

  • Unfamiliar with the test format = lower score
  • Might miss your target level (B2/C1)
  • Retaking = extra cost

💡 Strategy

  • B2 = needed for scholarships/universities
  • C1 = needed for graduate jobs
  • Do at least a mock test or 2–3 practice lessons
Test Format

What the Exam Covers

The YOLAPT exam evaluates all four core language skills. Each is tested separately and counts equally toward your final score.

🎧 Listening

Understand conversations, interviews, and announcements.

📖 Reading

Comprehend articles, messages, and other authentic texts.

✍️ Writing

Produce notes, essays, letters, and reports.

🗣️ Speaking

Engage in role-play, presentations, and debates.
