Sample questions from the croatian test
Real items from the test bank — one per level band. The full test adapts from A1 to C1.
Ja i moj brat ___ u Zagrebu.
- 1živim
- 2živiš
- 3živimo
- 4žive
Show answer
Correct: živimo
"Ja i moj brat" is a first-person plural ("mi") subject, so the verb takes the 1pl ending -mo: "živimo". "Živim" is 1sg, "živiš" is 2sg, and "žive" is 3pl.
Kad bih imao više vremena, ___ španjolski.
- 1učim
- 2učio sam
- 3učio bih
- 4učit ću
Show answer
Correct: učio bih
An unreal (counterfactual) condition pairs the conditional in the "kad"-clause ("kad bih imao") with the conditional in the main clause: "učio bih". The present "učim" and the future "učit ću" express a real, open condition, not the hypothetical one set up by "kad bih imao".
Da je ___ posljedice, ne bi bio prihvatio taj zadatak.
- 1znao
- 2zna
- 3znajući
- 4znati
Show answer
Correct: znao
A counterfactual past condition uses "da" + the perfekt in the protasis paired with the conditional perfect in the apodosis: "Da je znao … ne bi bio prihvatio". The present "zna" gives a real-time statement, while the gerund "znajući" and the infinitive "znati" cannot carry the counterfactual past meaning.

Methodology
This is the same placement engine used inside the Lenguia study-plan product. It combines 35 multiple-choice grammar, reading and vocabulary questions with listening items on real recorded audio, 10 short writing prompts and 5 speaking prompts, ordered from A1 to C1.
Scoring uses a pass-threshold model: each CEFR level is "passed" when you earn roughly two-thirds of its available points, and your result is the highest level you pass consecutively starting from A1. This rewards consistent competence rather than lucky guesses. Results range from A1 to C1 (the test does not grade C2).
The items are informed by the competency descriptors of the Council of Europe CEFR framework. This is a free self-assessment: results are a reliable orientation, not a certified proficiency measurement.
The competency descriptors follow the Council of Europe CEFR framework.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is this Croatian cefr level test?
It uses the same item bank and pass-threshold scoring as the placement engine inside Lenguia's study-plan product, so the CEFR estimate is consistent and repeatable. Like any online self-assessment it is an orientation, not an official certificate.
Is it really free? Do I need an account?
Yes — the full test, the result and the shareable certificate are free, with no signup. If you create an account afterwards, your result can be used to build a personalized study plan.
What levels can I get?
A1, A2, B1, B2 or C1. A level counts as reached when you earn roughly two-thirds of its points and have passed every level below it. C2 is not graded.
Can I retake the test?
Yes, as often as you like. Questions within each level are shuffled, and your latest result replaces the previous one on this device.
Do I need a microphone?
Only for the short speaking section — you can skip those questions and still get a full result for the other skills.
