The Oxford Placement Test, the first globally available online computer-adaptive placement test, was launched in 2009 and has placed millions of test takers since it was launched. It tests British English, American English, or a mix of the two language variants. The OPT replaced the now retired Quick Placement Test, a CD-ROM test provided in partnership with Cambridge English. The success of the Oxford Placement Test led to the design of the Oxford Test of English, and online computer-adaptive English Proficiency test, used as proof of English ability for university entry and employment.[1]

The Oxford Placement Test is designed to provide a quick, accurate measurement of a test taker's English language ability on the CEFR scale. The test consists of two sections: Language Use and Listening. Within the Use of English Section, in addition to standard grammar, lexis and listening questions, the test design focuses on meaning beyond the sentence, including implied meaning; the language sampled in the test is an accurate predictor of general language ability.[2] The test has been independently reviewed and found perform better than other placement tests.[3]
