INDEPENDENT BY DESIGN
Disclaimer
A2B1 Lab is an independent educational resource. Understand our relationship to qualification names and the limits of our practice material.
No official affiliation
A2B1 Lab is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Cambridge University Press & Assessment. We are not an exam centre, an awarding body or an official provider of candidate results.
A2 Key, B1 Preliminary and Cambridge English Qualifications are trademarks of their respective owners. These names, and the familiar abbreviations KET and PET, are used only descriptively to identify the qualifications discussed. We do not use Cambridge logos or claim ownership of those trademarks.
Original learning material
All practice questions on this site are original A2B1 Lab material. They are not official examination questions and are not copied or paraphrased from official sample papers. Model answers, scenarios and teaching examples illustrate possible approaches; they are not candidates’ real scripts.
Our practice sets are designed to teach specific skills. They are not standardised, calibrated or a reliable basis for predicting a scale score. Any qualitative labels on examples are teaching judgements rather than official examiner grades.
Check official information
Exam formats, result arrangements and delivery options may change. Before making a decision, check cambridgeenglish.org and your authorised exam centre. In particular, confirm the exact qualification, version, date, delivery mode, fee, identity rules and access arrangements for a booking.
Useful starting points are the official A2 Key format, B1 Preliminary format and results information. Our explanations do not replace official instructions.
Tools and advice
The word counter provides a drafting aid, the score converter maps published score bands and the verb drill supports recall. None is an official assessment service. We cannot guarantee a grade, readiness for an exam or acceptance by a school, employer or other organisation.
