The Public English Test System (PETS; {{zh|first=s|s=全国公共英语等级考试|t=全國公共英語等級考試|p=Quánguó Gōnggòng Yīngyǔ Děngjí Kǎoshì}}) is a test developed by the National Education Examinations Authority (NEEA) of Mainland China. The PETS is the edition of the Quanguo Waiyu Shuiping Kaoshi (WSK) for the English language.[1] It is available in five levels: PETS-1 through PETS-5.[2] PETS testing is open to persons of all professions, ages, and academic backgrounds.[3]

The tests were designed in 1996 as a way to test persons outside of the college and university system; the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES) gave professional and technical support to the development.[4] In 1999 pilot tests of the PETS occurred in several cities. The first mass-offering of the PETS was in 2003.[3]

The testing levels are:

  • PETS-5: Advanced level,[6] sufficient for studying and/or working outside of China,[5] sufficient for equivalent to an English major at a Chinese university after two years of studying English.[6]
  • PETS-4: Upper intermediate level, equivalent to that of a non-English major student at a Chinese university after three years of studying English.[6]
  • PETS-3: Intermediate level, equivalent to that of a non-English major student at a Chinese university after two years of studying English.[6]
  • PETS-2: Lower intermediate level, equivalent to that of a student entering university in China.[6]
  • PETS-1: Elementary level,[6] equivalent to completion of three years of English instruction, or what someone would have at the junior high school level.[7]

There is also a PETS-1B, which is below PETS-1.[3]
