ALCPT format
ALCPT listening practice test
The ALCPT listening part runs 66 questions over one continuous recording: 56 short statements and questions, then 10 conversation items. This page gives you a full practice test in that exact format, free and without an account.
How does the ALCPT listening section work?
The listening section has 66 questions played over one continuous recording: questions 1 to 56 cover short statements and questions, questions 57 to 66 cover conversations. The audio does not stop between questions, which makes pacing as decisive as comprehension itself.
- 66 questions in a row: the real challenge is not getting stuck on one item.
- Questions 1 to 56: short statements. Questions 57 to 66: conversations.
- The answer choices are printed: reading ahead saves valuable time.
