In general, universities in US, Canada, Australia and Europe require a demonstration of English language proficiency for students whose first language is not English. The Canadian Academic English Language (CAEL) Assessment is a standardised English language test that evaluates a student's ability to use English at the post secondary level as it tests reading, listening, writing and speaking skills commonly used in an academic domain. This academic orientation differentiates CAEL from general language proficiency tests like IELTS and TOEFL, which test global language proficiency. Another striking feature of CAEL is that it tests the student's language skills in an integrated manner, not in the form of standalone modules of reading, listening, writing and speaking. CAEL Assessment is essential if one is looking to pursue higher studies in Canada. The assessment exam can be taken as an alternative to TOEFL or IELTS, unless a university specifies the submission of CAEL scores during admission process.
TCY helps prepare test takers with simulated practice in the form of mocks and topic-wise tests.
