Your AI coach
Your own AI as your coach.
Connect the Claude or ChatGPT you already use. It reviews your Writing and Speaking against CELPIP's public level descriptions and saves a report into Prep CELPIP:
- an AI rough estimate of your level, with the reasons;
- your own words quoted, with a better way to say them;
- the one thing to fix next, and the lesson that helps.
Prep CELPIP has no AI of its own and never charges for AI. Your AI works on your own account with Claude or ChatGPT, and reads only what you send for review. Claude can save reports on its free plan; on some ChatGPT plans it can only talk you through your work in the chat.
An estimate is an estimate. Every level is labelled "AI rough estimate — AI can make mistakes, not an official CELPIP score". Prep CELPIP checks each report before it is saved: every correction must quote words you really wrote or said.
Clear purpose and a polite tone, like CELPIP's level 7 description: "adequate proficiency in somewhat demanding" contexts. Missing articles make some sentences harder to read.
Articles (a, an, the): six times in this email.
"I am writing about dog that barks…" → "about your dog, which barks…"

Questions
CELPIP practice, answered.
How is CELPIP scored?
CELPIP-General gives you a separate level for each skill: Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking, on a scale from M and 3 up to 12. Listening and Reading come from your correct answers. Writing and Speaking are rated by trained raters, who look at content and coherence, vocabulary, how easy your answer is to read or follow, and how well it does the task.
Is Prep CELPIP the official CELPIP test?
No. Prep CELPIP is an independent practice site. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Paragon Testing Enterprises, which makes CELPIP. Only the real test gives an official score.
Is the AI estimate my real CELPIP score?
No. Every level you see is labelled "AI rough estimate — AI can make mistakes, not an official CELPIP score". It comes with the reasoning, tied to CELPIP's published level descriptions, so you can see why. Use it to track progress and find what to fix, not to predict your result.
Which AI works with Prep CELPIP?
Claude works, including its free plan. ChatGPT works on plans that let it save into connected apps; on other ChatGPT plans it can talk you through your work in the chat but cannot save a report. Other AI tools that can connect to a custom server with a code also work. The Connect your AI page walks you through each one.
Do I pay for the AI feedback?
Prep CELPIP never charges you for AI. Your AI runs on your own account with Claude, ChatGPT or another tool, so the only AI cost is the plan you already have, and free plans can be enough.
How long is the CELPIP-General test, and are the mock tests the same length?
The real test takes about three hours in one sitting, on a computer, with all four skills. Prep CELPIP has 9 complete mock tests, and each one follows the same order and timers. You can also practise one section at a time when three hours is too much for today.
Can I practise on my phone?
Yes. Prep CELPIP runs in the browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and your work follows you when you sign in. The real test is taken on a computer, so a laptop is the closest match for a full mock test.
