Tips to Improve your Pipplet Grade

General Recommendations

Take a practice test to get comfortable with the format of the test. This practice test will not be evaluated.
Use all of the time allocated to answer each question. We encourage candidates to spend some time planning and structuring their answers before responding. In the case of written questions, try to use the last 30 seconds to proofread your answer and to fix mistakes in spelling and grammar.

Speaking section

Speak clearly, articulating well
Speak at a natural and even pace
Only the last response recorded will be evaluated, so you can try again if you are not satisfied with your first response. There is no need to worry about pauses, repeating a word or self-correction - these are natural parts of speaking. Just don’t forget to keep an eye on the timer!
Speak for as long as you can! Response length can have an impact on your grade, as you are more likely to obtain a higher grade if you develop your answers to the best of your ability. Longer answers allow you to demonstrate a broader vocabulary and a variety of grammar and sentence structures.

Written section

Make sure you have the correct keyboard installed before the test
Proofread your answers to correct mistakes in spelling and grammar
Write as much as you can! Similar to speaking, the more you write the more opportunities you have to show off what you know.

Question 3

Your microphone or your camera cannot be detected?

Accepted Answer

| If you are having trouble with your microphone or your webcam, the following information can help you troubleshoot and resolve these issues.

First, try restarting your device and allow access to your audio or webcam. If your microphone and webcam are still not detected, please proceed with the following steps.

1- My microphone cannot be detected

Make sure that you've allowed access to your microphone and the volume is turned up

— Ensure that your microphone is connected to your device correctly. — Make sure your microphone is authorized in your device settings and that the volume is loud enough.

My sound quality isn't good

— Make sure you are in a calm and quiet location and there is nothing obstructing your microphone speakers. Surrounding noises can affect the quality of your recordings. — We recommend using headphones or a headset, if you have them. This will enhance the quality of your recordings.

The volume of my recordings is too low

— Increase your microphone's volume. — Try to speak as close to your computer's microphone as possible. — Speak as clearly and as loudly as you can.

How to take the Pipplet test in non-latin alphabet languages?

Accepted Answer

How to take the Pipplet test in non-latin alphabet languages?

The Pipplet test requires writing in a given language. That's why it is imperative that you have a keyboard allowing you to input in the language of the test.

For most of the languages, you can either equip yourself with a keyboard or get a sticker set. These stickers are easily found on the Internet for 3 or 4€.

For all languages on Google Chrome

| You can install Google Input Tools. It’s an extension for your browser that will allow you to enter text in non-latin languages.

Depending on the language, several options are available:

Transliteration (icon depicting a letter from the language) Just enter words as they are pronounced and the tool will ask you to choose from a list of corresponding words.
Virtual Keyboard (keyboard icon) Your keyboard will correspond to the language in question keyboard. We recommend this option if you’re already familiar with the language keyboard and can type without looking at your physical keyboard.
Handwriting (pencil icon) You can draw symbols on your touchpad, and the system will transform it into the written characters. This option is not recommended, as it’s very time-consuming.

Activate it and you will be ready to take the Pipplet test!
