Instructions
  • For this listening test, you will check your answers at the end of the hour and hand in your work.
  • There are 4 parts to CAE listening. Each part will have a short explanation with what is expected of you for this part and a link to the website if you want to practice on your own.  
  • Make sure you take your time to answer the questions. A full test normally takes between 40-50 minutes and this will be similar to the listening test this year.
