Support for candidates

What are the differences between the computer-based and paper-based exam versions?

Most Cambridge exams are available to be taken as a computer or paper-based test. This has added more exam dates each year allowing the exam to be taken when candidates are ready for it.

Paper-based (PB) and computer-based (CB) tests are different versions of the same exam.

They lead to exactly the same certificate and are scored in exactly the same way. The two versions allow you more choice in how you take the exam.

Advantage of computer-based testing

If you take the computer-based exam, you can register for your exam later (up to one week before the exam date) and you will receive your exam results more quickly (in 5-10 days instead of four weeks for paper-based tests).

More dates, more flexibility, more choice
