              More UKISET practice tests

              What counts as a good UKiset score depends greatly on the school a candidate is applying to attend, and also varies according to the three sections of the test. The following points can act as a rough guide.  

              UKiset Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning and Maths Scores: 

              For these sections of the UKiset, candidates scores are standardised against tens of thousands of British students of the same age in the state and independent school sectors. 

              The Standard Age Score (SAS) is based on the number of questions answered correctly, the average score for students in UK independent schools is 111. 

              Different schools will expect different scores. The more academically selective a school is the higher their SAS expectation is likely to be. The top schools are likely to require in excess of 125+ average standardised test score. 

              It is always worth noting that two average Standardised Age Scores are given to schools, one overall average and one that excludes the Verbal Reasoning Score. This is to ensure that a candidate’s level of English does not unduly affect the overall score in this section. 

              UKiset Reading and Listening score

              For this component of the UKiset, students are given an English CEFR level. Most schools will be looking for a minimum of B2 score.

              Essay Writing score

              This is marked by schools themselves and they will have varying expectations of what counts as a ‘good’ mark or score.
