Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum, and I have a question regarding the CX CPP English assessment after the stage 2 interview (The ICAO English Proficiency Standard). I had took it once but wasn't able to attain level 4 (only level 3). CX is offering me a second chance to take it. My question is that will the questions be the same as what I had the first time? I actually do not remember the any question from the first attempt. Any information is greatly appreciated.

The problems I have are that I dont have enough vocabs in my bank, and I'm very bad at listening to the british accent. Any places online I can listen to more British conservations? and what is the most efficient method that I can improve my vocab bank?

Thanks

Hi, what level of English do you need to have for the exam. the fact that i am English, would that be good enough or is it a more complex exam?
thanks

I'm pretty sure you have no problem with the ICAO English Proficiency Test if English is your native language. It's basically a listening and speaking test.

abcpilot123,

Go to bbc.com and you will find "Learning English" at the bottom of the page. You will find a lot of videos teaching English in different areas. That may help you to become familiar with the British accent. Good Luck~

I took that exam 2-3months ago and failed too.
They asked me to retake it.

Let me know if you like to share.
I still remember some of the tests now.
