What this test can tell you
This original practice test gives approximate guidance for written Italian. It has not been externally validated or calibrated against a representative learner sample. It does not assess speaking or listening, and its reading suggestion is not a certified CEFR result.
About this tool
Is this an official Italian placement test?
No. It is a free self-check to help you choose reading material. For course admission or a formal qualification, use the assessment required by your school or exam provider.
Do I need an account?
No. Take the test and see your result without signing in. You can then browse books and short stories at the suggested level.
Will this change my vocabulary or reviews?
No. These public practice answers are separate from your LingoReader account and do not change vocabulary choices or review schedules.
