Advanced English (CAE) consists of four papers. It is not necessary to pass all four papers in order to pass the examination. There are three passing grades: A, B, C. As well as being told your grade, you will also be given a statement of your results which shows a graphical profile of your performance on each paper.
Extended certification Cambridge English: Advanced is set at Level C1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Extended certification can give you additional credit for the language skills you demonstrate in the exam. It works in two ways. • If you perform particularly well, you can get credit at a higher level on the CEFR.
If you get grade A in the exam, you receive a certificate indicating that you are at C2 level. • You can also receive credit for your English language skills, even if you do not achieve a passing grade. So if you do not get enough marks for a grade C in the exam, you can still be awarded a certificate showing performance at level B2 if you show this level of ability in the exam. Results CEFR level Grade A C2 Grades B and C C1 B2 level B2 Paper 1 Reading and Use of English 1 hour 30 minutes There are eight parts to this paper and they are always in the same order.
