Difference between CAE and other proficiency tests:
CAE is made up of five exam papers unlike TOEFL and IELTS which consist of only four papers (Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking)
The additional one paper known as Use of English, which tests knowledge of grammar and vocabulary could contribute to improving the language proficiency of candidates by giving them a chance to rectify mistakes in terms of grammar and that can also add bricks in others sections thus: improving the overall the score in CAE.
Also, candidates have the choice of taking CAE on either a computer or on paper. And another remarkable feature of the CAE is its certificate’s validity for life.
