PURPOSE

The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) is a valuable tool for interpreting a student’s language proficiency level and language test providers commonly provide information on how test scores relate to CEFR levels. Such information makes it seem that a score on one test can be converted to a score on a different test by simply matching the CEFR level. However, such score conversions can be problematic, and research shows that score equivalency through the CEFR levels is limited. In this talk, I will explain the process of linking test scores to CEFR levels, how this linking helps students, teachers, and educational institutions, and the limitations of using such linking to directly compare scores from different tests.
