First, let’s look at the basic facts of the test:
- Total Questions: 32 multiple-choice questions
- Question Format: Each question has 4 choices with only 1 correct answer.

Now that you know the basics, let’s dive into the exciting part: what you’ll actually be tested on!
What’s on the Test? A Look at the Three Main Parts
The O-NET English exam is neatly organized into three main skill areas. Think of them as three missions you’ll complete. They are “Communicating in English,” “Understanding English Culture,” and “Using English at School.”
Part 1: Communicating in English (The Biggest Section!)
This is the most important part of the test, making up 22 out of the 32 total questions. It tests how well you can use English to read, chat, and describe the world around you, focusing on familiar topics like school, family, food, shopping, and the weather. This big section is divided into three smaller skills.
Reading & Understanding
This skill tests your ability to understand the meaning of short texts, signs, pictures, and simple conversations, and it’s worth 6 questions. You’ll need to show that you can:
- Match Words to Pictures: Understand sentences or short descriptions that go with a picture, symbol, or sign.
- Find the Main Idea: Read or listen to simple stories and conversations and then figure out the most important point.
- Answer Key Questions: Be ready to answer questions about what you read using words like Who, What, Where, When, Why, How. You’ll also see some Yes/No questions.
Teacher’s Tip: For questions with pictures or signs, look at the image carefully before you read the choices. Ask yourself what you see. This helps you spot the correct answer faster and avoid tricky options!
Everyday Conversations
This part is all about using English in daily life and includes 10 questions. It checks if you know the right thing to say in common situations. This shows you can be polite and clear when talking to friends, teachers, or tourists.
| Common Situations | What You Might Say |
| Greeting someone | Hello / Good morning |
| Saying goodbye | Goodbye / See you later |
| Thanking someone | Thank you very much |
| Apologizing | I am sorry / Excuse me |
| Asking for help | Can you help me? / I need... |
| Giving information about yourself or your family | My name is... / This is my sister. |
Teacher’s Tip: This section is all about knowing the polite and correct phrase to use in common situations. Think about what you would say if you met a friend, needed help from a teacher, or wanted to say thank you.
Describing Your World
This skill is about using your English vocabulary to give information and share ideas about things you know well, and it’s worth 6 questions.
- About You: Your personal information and your daily routine.
- Numbers, Dates, and Time: This includes numbers up to 1,000, days of the week, months, and seasons.
- Describing Things: Using words for different colors, sizes, and shapes.
- Expressing Feelings & Opinions: Using phrases to share what you think, like
I like... because...orI feel... because....
Beyond everyday communication, the exam also wants to see what you know about English-speaking cultures and the language itself.
Part 2: Understanding Language and Culture
This smaller section is about knowing some interesting facts about English-speaking cultures and how the English language is put together. It’s worth a total of 6 questions.
- Holidays and Traditions (2 questions): You might be asked about common festivals and holidays like Christmas and New Year’s. This could include topics like special clothing, food, or the seasons when these holidays happen.
- English vs. Thai (4 questions): This part tests if you know some of the key differences between English and Thai, such as sentence structure (word order), punctuation marks, and how words are pronounced.
Finally, the test brings it all together by checking how you use these English skills in the one place you practice them every day: your school!
Part 3: Using English at School
This final section tests your ability to use English in situations you’d find right in your classroom or at school and is worth 4 questions. For example, you might need to show that you can:
- Understand a teacher’s instructions.
- Participate in a simple classroom conversation.
How the Test is Weighted: A Quick Summary
Knowing how many questions are in each section can help you focus your study time on the most important areas. Here is a quick breakdown:
| Test Section | Number of Questions |
| Communicating in English | 22 questions |
| Understanding Language and Culture | 6 questions |
| Using English at School | 4 questions |
