Avant STAMP Overview
Avant STAMP WS is a web-based test that assesses language proficiency. It has 4 sections: Чтение (Самооценка), Письмо, Прослушивание (Самооценка), and Говорящий.
Writing and Speaking responses are rated by Avant Certified Raters who use a Scoring Rubric that lists the criteria for meeting Benchmark Levels.
Each test taker should read through the Руководство для Тестируемого.

Preparing for the Test
Avant STAMP is a proficiency test of what the test taker can do with the language at this point in time. There are no “right” or “wrong” answers, simply a demonstration of their skills.
To help each test taker prepare, we do have several resources to help:
Примеры Тестов
Shows what the test will look like and gives examples of Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced questions and prompts. It does not show the computer-adaptive nature of the test and will not give a score at the end.
Видеоуроки
Helps the test taker understand how to do their best and what to expect during testing.
Примеры Письма
For many languages, we provide real examples of writing responses for each level. Test takers can compare what they know to understand what type of language is expected at each level.
Benchmarks and Rubrics
This guide helps to understand how the test is scored and provides question topics that might be used at each level in the Reading and Listening sections.
评估结果
After scoring is completed, results will be provided to the school or organization administering the test.
The report shows how your student performed in Письмо and Говорящий and gives an overall (composite) score.
For a detailed explanation of how scores are determined, see the Бенчмаркинг и Руководство по Рубрикам, which describes what is expected at each level. If you have questions about an individual student’s scores, please contact the school or organization that gave the test.
Понимание Оценок
The Individual Report shows the score earned for each skill, along with a Composite Score.
Score Pyramid
An inverted pyramid graphic displays each score. The filled section shows the level reached.
- For Writing and Speaking, an extra shaded area may appear if one response was scored at a higher level.
- This indicates the student may be performing across a range of proficiency levels for that skill.
Skill Descriptions
Next to the pyramid, you’ll see descriptions of the skill (Writing and Speaking) and the level category (Novice, Intermediate, Advanced).
- If a test section wasn’t finished, this area will instead show the status: Not Started or In Progress.
Power Up Suggestions
On the far right, the report lists Power Up Suggestions—practical tips the student can use to improve and reach higher scores in that skill.
