The paid practice test allows you to sit one translation task in the real NAATI test environment and to be assessed by one NAATI examiner.
The practice test is not a full representation of the Certified Translator test as it does not contain a revision task, nor a second translation task.
By sitting a paid translation practice test, you can:
- experience the testing environment of your upcoming test. You will be proctored and have access to live help and support.
- be assessed by one NAATI examiner against the NAATI assessment rubrics, which will help you determine your readiness for the actual test.
- get a good indication of the complexity and style of the CT translation task. All practice test materials have been previously used in real tests.

NOTE: The results received from a practice test are not able to be used to contribute to future tests or to work as a Certified Translator. Passing the practice test does not guarantee a pass in the actual test.
