Sample questions from the urdu test
Real items from the test bank — one per level band. The full test adapts from A1 to C1.
یہ میری کتاب ہے اور وہ تمہاری کتابیں ___۔
- 1ہوں
- 2ہے
- 3ہیں
- 4تھا
Show answer
Correct: ہیں
The subject "کتابیں" (books) is plural, so the present copula is the 3rd-person plural "ہیں". "ہوں" is 1st-person singular, "ہے" is 3rd-person singular, and "تھا" is the masculine singular past copula.
جب میں چھوٹا تھا، تو میں روز اس باغ میں ___۔
- 1گیا
- 2جاتا تھا
- 3جاؤں گا
- 4جا چکا
Show answer
Correct: جاتا تھا
A repeated past habit ("used to") is the past habitual "جاتا تھا". The simple past "گیا" marks a single completed event, "جاؤں گا" is the future, and "جا چکا" is the completive — none expresses a recurring childhood habit.
اگر اسے نتائج کا علم ___، تو وہ یہ ذمہ داری کبھی قبول نہ کرتا۔
- 1ہو
- 2ہوتا
- 3ہے
- 4ہوگا
Show answer
Correct: ہوتا
A past counterfactual condition uses "اگر … ہوتا، تو … نہ کرتا" ("had he known … he would never have accepted"). The subjunctive "ہو", the present "ہے" and the presumptive "ہوگا" cannot complete this contrary-to-fact frame, which requires the imperfective "ہوتا" in both clauses.

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.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is this Urdu 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.
