The English Proficiency Test (also known as the College English Test) is open to undergraduate students who have completed the College English Test Band-4 (CET-4) and wish to further improve their English proficiency. Additionally, postgraduate students and individuals who are studying in correspondence or distance education programs can also take the test with the approval of their respective schools. The main purpose of the test is to assess the language skills of these students and provide them with a recognized certification of their English proficiency level. It is worth mentioning that the CET-4 is a direct pathway to the National English Proficiency Test for College Students and the CET-6, which are the two main English proficiency tests in China. Therefore, students who have successfully passed the CET-4 can also consider preparing for the CET-6 to further enhance their language skills and broaden their opportunities for higher education and employment.
