Abstract | Discusses the elusiveness of precision in language testing in relation to three major issues of linguistic analysis: 1) universality; 2) combining power; and 3) incorporation of extra language data. The results of a recent English Language Testing Service (ELTS) Test support this relationship. Language testing should accept the centrality of uncertainty and make uncertainty explicit.
