1What it is
An English test taken online at home in a short sitting, with automated and human proctoring, with results in a few days. It is now accepted by a large number of universities worldwide and is cheaper and easier to reach than the traditional tests, though acceptance varies between institutions.
2Who it suits
Applicants to foreign universities that accept it, and anyone who wants a quick measure of their level.
3What it requires
A computer with a camera and a quiet room.
4How it is earned
Taken whenever the candidate chooses, with no appointment. Check before sitting it that the institution accepts it, as some programmes and government bodies do not.
