# I am not satisfied with my results, what to do?

Receiving a level lower than you expected can be disappointing. This page explains how your result was determined, and the only available step if you wish to have its compliance checked.

|| Your LILATE result is **final**. It was awarded by a certified examiner (or, in the AI modality, by a controlled automated framework), using a standardised method, based on your entire performance in both speaking and writing.

---

## Why your result may differ from your expectations

The LILATE does not measure an academic level. It measures your ability to **use the language concretely in professional situations**. A diploma or another certification may therefore indicate a different level: they do not assess the same skills.

The LILATE is based on the [CEFR](https://help.lilate.org/fr/article/quelles-competences-sont-evaluees-lors-dun-lilate-et-leur-lien-avec-le-cecrl-w3jknr/), whose levels are broad. When a candidate sits at the boundary between two levels, the examiner assigns the one that best matches the performance actually demonstrated.

## Having the compliance of your result checked

Do you believe a procedural error or a technical incident may have affected your test? You can request a **compliance check**.

### What it involves

A member of our quality team reviews your file and verifies that your result was established correctly: consistency of the assessment grid, absence of technical incident, compliance of the procedure. It is an administrative check of your existing result.

|| **What it is not.** It is neither a new test, nor a re-marking of your answers, nor a second attempt. You do not retake the LILATE.

### Price and conditions

* **Single flat fee: €39**, identical for the LILATE with examiner and the LILATE AI.
* Request to be made within **5 days** after the exam took place.
* The check concerns the procedure, **not a renegotiation of your level**.

||| This check **does not guarantee any change to your level.** In the vast majority of cases, the check confirms the original result. The fee covers the verification work, whatever the outcome.

### If a non-compliance is found

If the check reveals a genuine procedural or processing issue, your file is corrected and the €39 is refunded to you as **credit** towards another LILATE service.
