CELPIP score calculator
Enter how many Listening and Reading questions you got right out of 38, and your Speaking and Writing levels if you have them. The calculator shows an approximate CELPIP level and CLB for each skill. It is an estimate based on CELPIP’s published example ranges, not an official conversion.
How the calculator estimates your level
CELPIP publishes example raw-score ranges for each level, and the ranges overlap because every test form is equated for difficulty. To give one number, the calculator uses the middle of the overlap. Here is how it works for Listening: 35 or more correct is shown as 10+, 34 as 9, 31–33 as 8, 28–30 as 7, 24–27 as 6, 19–23 as 5, 13–18 as 4, 8–12 as 3. For Reading it shows 33 or more as 10+, 31–32 as 9, 29–30 as 8, 25–28 as 7, 21–24 as 6, 17–20 as 5, 12–16 as 4 and 8–11 as 3.
It also lists every published range that contains your score, so you can see when you sit on a boundary. CELPIP does not separate 10, 11 and 12 in its raw-score examples, so the calculator shows “10+”.
Why your lowest skill matters
Most IRCC language requirements set a minimum CLB in each ability, not an average. That is why the calculator highlights your lowest skill. Read the score requirements page for the levels IRCC publishes for each program.
Frequently asked questions
Is this CELPIP calculator official?
No. It applies CELPIP’s published example ranges with our own midpoint rule. Real results depend on the difficulty of your test form.
Can I calculate my CRS points here?
No. Use IRCC’s own Comprehensive Ranking System tool; this page only estimates CELPIP levels.
Where do I get a raw score to enter?
From a practice test with an answer key, such as our free reading set or CELPIP’s free official practice tests.
