Do I need to take a placement test before applying?

Only if you have studied the language before. As a complete beginner (A0), you can apply straight away. Everyone else takes a free, 5–10-minute online placement test and gets their result on the A1–C2 scale straight away. This is followed by a short, also free, speaking assessment, based on which we recommend the language group that matches your level.
