Scores

Read the transcript

Canada asks for proof of your English. CELPIP-General is how you give it. Myndaq covers all four skills, structured across five chapters and twenty-one modules, so nothing on test day is a surprise.

The test runs about three hours, one continuous sitting, fully computer-delivered, scored one to twelve. Listening alone spans six modules, from daily conversation and news items to discussion and viewpoints.

Reading breaks into four modules: correspondence, diagrams, information, viewpoints. Writing asks for two tasks, an email and survey responses, so you practise organizing ideas and choosing the right tone.

Speaking is eight tasks. Give advice, describe a scene, make predictions. Then compare and persuade, handle a difficult situation, express opinions. You learn to think, organize, and respond.

Every skill gets its own score, one to twelve, tracked separately as you improve. Full mock tests run timed, in one continuous sitting, so you build stamina before test day.

While you practise, the AI tutor explains questions, gives step-by-step hints, and flags what to fix. Four skills, your own pace. Start at myndaq.com slash exam slash celpip.

CELPIP-General: common questions

What is the CELPIP-General format and how long is it?

Four components in one sitting of under 3 hours: Listening (6 parts, 38 questions, 46–55 min), Reading (4 parts, 38 questions, 43–56 min), Writing (2 tasks, 53 min) and Speaking (8 tasks, 15 min, recorded via on-screen prompts).

How is CELPIP scored and what is CLB?

Each component is reported separately. CELPIP levels 3–12 map directly to Canadian Language Benchmark levels, so a CELPIP 9 is CLB 9. Lower and unrated results have special mappings on the official score scale. There is no pass mark; IRCC programmes such as Express Entry set the CLB you need.

How soon do CELPIP results come and how long are they valid?

Scores post to your CELPIP account in 2–4 business days, with an email alert and a downloadable PDF report. For Express Entry, IRCC requires results less than two years old both when completing your profile and submitting your permanent-residence application. Account access to a score report does not extend that immigration validity.

Where can I take CELPIP in India?

celpip.ca's India page states the test is currently offered in Chandigarh, Ahmedabad, New Delhi, Chennai and Hyderabad, run through Prometric centres. Check the live date loader on that page for sittings.

Can I get a CELPIP component re-marked?

Yes. You can apply for re-evaluation of individual components within six months of the test date, and the fee is refunded if your level goes up.

CELPIP-General or General LS — which one?

General (all four skills) is for permanent residence, professional bodies and universities; General LS (Listening and Speaking only, about 70 minutes) is for citizenship applications.
