The Acceptable English Proficiency Test

To apply for the R4Ent course, you have to send the additional document to us via email. One of them is the English Proficiency Test. In this blog, we will introduce what our acceptable English score is and how you will get it.

The R4Ent accepts the English score from these 3 places: CU TEP, TOEFL, and IELTS (only IELTS Academic). All of these have their own format and differ in date, time, and place. So, the R4Ent team has compiled each test format and the test schedule for 2023 for you. For those who don't have an English score yet, don’t forget to check out this blog!


What is CU TEP?

CU TEP (Chulalongkorn University Test of English Proficiency) is the English Proficiency Test for Education at Chulalongkorn University. This test can be used in preparing for pursuing a bachelor's degree, a master’s degree, or a doctoral degree, as well as applying for jobs in both the public and private sectors. The total score is 120 points, with three parts to the exam: listening, reading, and writing. If you want to get a speaking score, CU TEP also has a speaking test called CU Speaking, but in this course, CU Speaking doesn’t need to.

What is TOEFL?

TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is an English Proficiency Test from Education Testing Service (ETS) that is suitable for students, English teachers, and people who are applying for jobs in foreign companies.

There are 2 types of TOEFL.

  1. TOEFL iBT (TOEFL Internet-based Test), the most popular test, has a high acceptance rate in the world. There are four parts to this type: listening, reading, writing, and speaking, with a total score of 120. The content is almost all about the knowledge that you use in the classroom. This type is more suitable for the student.

  2. TOEFL ITP (TOEFL Institutional Testing Program) is the educational institution using the exam from ETS to take their own test. The content of this type is about academics and English in daily life. There are only three parts: listening, structure and written expression, and reading, with a total score of 667.
