Convert section by section when no crosswalk exists
Two language proficiency tests rarely have an accepted table for turning one score into the other. They are written by different bodies, split into different sections and marked out of different maximums, so any single conversion number would be a guess. This page stores no chart at all. You name the test your score comes from and the test you want it expressed on, then list each section with your score, the source maximum and the target maximum, and the page converts each section and adds the results up.
How the conversion works
For every section your score is divided by the source maximum to get a percentage, and that percentage is multiplied by the target section maximum and by the adjustment factor. Leaving the factor at 100 gives a plain proportional conversion; raising or lowering it applies whatever consistent offset your reference material uses. If the factor pushes a section past its target maximum, that section alone is capped and the number of capped sections is reported. Every step runs unrounded and rounding happens only on display, to two decimal places.
What this page does not do
It cannot tell you a figure an institution would accept. The output is a reference number built from the maximums and factor you supplied, so it does not belong on an application. It also does not rank the two tests or award a band. The Korean version of this page covers two language tests used in Korea.
Frequently Asked Questions
For most pairs there is not. Tests are built by different bodies with different section counts and maximums, and no accepted table converts one into the other. This page therefore stores no chart and applies only one transparent method, proportional conversion by section, printing the formula with the result.
Because sections carry different weights. Scaling a single total loses the fact that listening and writing may count for different maximums on each test. Working out a percentage per section and applying it to the target section maximum keeps that weighting.
Use 100 if you do not want an adjustment. If the reference material you are following places one test consistently above the other, enter that ratio. A factor high enough to push a section past its target maximum caps that section, and the result reports how many sections were capped.
