How the test works

Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

Hello! My name is Noémie and I am French. I was born in September 1982, so this year, I am forty-three years old. I am thin, sporty and very tall. I'm blonde with long curly hair. In my familly, we were five siblings. I don't have any sisters, and my four brothers are older than me. When I was younger, I had a lovely white (male) cat and a blue budgie [US: parakeet], but now, I can't have pets in my home because my flat [US: apartment] is way too small.

I'll be right with you...
