proficiency test
Competence level exam
A proficiency test measures competence in a skill or subject area, establishing whether someone has reached a required level of ability.
Language proficiency tests like the TOEFL assess fluency for academic or immigration purposes.
Unlike achievement tests that measure what was learned in a specific course, proficiency tests evaluate overall capability regardless of how it was acquired: She passed the proficiency test and skipped the introductory class.
