Relating AcCEPT Proficiency to other English Language Tests

Test users frequently ask how the scores from different examinations compare with each other. The varying formats, designs and measurement scales of different examinations make it very difficult to give exact comparisons with any degree of confidence. Such comparisons are difficult to verify both empirically and conceptually. With this in mind, test-users should nonetheless still find the following correlations useful to consider: the candidates who achieve a 6.5 in IELTS would typically receive a PASS grade in Anglia Proficiency; the candidates who achieve a 7.0 in IELTS would typically receive a MERIT grade in Anglia Proficiency and the candidates who achieve a 7.5 in IELTS would typically receive a DISTINCTION grade in Anglia Proficiency.
