Find your Icelandic level
How good is your Icelandic? When you know your level, you will be able to find a course at the right level and our language advisers can easily help you.
The following test is a combination of two methods: self-assessment, where you assess your own skill-level, and a standard test, where you choose the correct answer.
The test assesses "grammar and vocabulary", "reading skills" and "listening skills". "Oral" and "written" skills will not be assessed online – just the self-assessment.
Each section of the test starts with a self-assessment – here you assess how good your language is in particular situations. Based on this evaluation, the test will then take you to the appropriate level you will be tested at.
