Choosing the right YKI test

YKI tests will be graded on a scale 1-6. Every YKI test consists of four test components and each component will be graded separately. You can get a grade

• 1 or 2 from the basic level 
• 3 or 4 from the intermediate level
• 5 or 6 from the advanced level.

The grading scale used in YKI tests is comparable with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). You can read more about the proficiency levels as well as the comparability between YKI and CERF grading scales below.
