Test Advice - CET 4 and 6

CET stands for College English Test, the purpose of which is to test for Chinese college students' (non-English majors) general English ability--listening, reading comprehension, and writing--against specified teaching syllabus. CET tests are not a professional-level certification.

Students who failed to pass CET-4 test are ineligible for a BA degree. Therefore, for all college students (non-English majors), passing CET-4 is obligatory.

CET Band 4 and 6 are also open to the general public. CET-4 and 6 certificates showing "优秀" (Excellence) are reserved for high-scoring students/takers.
