Brazilian Portuguese Computerized Adaptive Test

The Brazilian Portuguese Computerized Adaptive Test was designed to measure a student's knowledge of Brazilian Portuguese in different areas of language knowledge, such as reading comprehension, vocabulary, listening comprehension, grammar and culture. This test can also be used as an exit exam - that is, students can take it before and after taking a course of Brazilian Portuguese.

You will need to schedule this test by contacting professor Antônio Simões. This test can be taken at the University of Kansas language lab (after scheduling). If you would like to receive a copy of this test, please contact professor Antônio Simões. After doing so, you will need to choose whether you would like to download the test or receive it on a cd. In order to download it, please click here (you will need a password to do that). Note that you will need Microsoft Windows to run our test.

If you would like to see some sample questions, try to take our Brazilian Portuguese Sample CAT. You will need Macromedia Flash player to take the Sample CAT. Click here if you find any problems while taking the Sample CAT.

Please note that the questions on the Sample CAT were only based on the ones on the CAT, so you will not find the same questions on both tests. Also, because those are only sample questions, the Sample CAT is not an adaptive test, and its design might differ from the CAT's.
