Why self-estimation is difficult
Familiar topics can make your English feel stronger, while an unfamiliar text can make it feel weaker. A balanced reading needs more than vocabulary size: it needs evidence from grammar, reading connections, and repeated performance.

After you know the level
- Read the level guide.
- Open the primary skill-gap guide.
