Familiarity with English language tests
(First part – MSRT test)
The MSRT exam is the same as the former MCHE exam, but its name has been changed. MCHE was the abbreviation of the Ministry of Culture and Higher Education, which has been changed to MSRT, the abbreviation of the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology. This exam is organized by the Student Vice-Chancellor of the Ministry of Science, and it is valid for candidates applying to be sent abroad, scholarship and doctorate within the Ministry of Science and Health and Islamic Azad University. The MSRT exam is simpler and less expensive than the TOEFL and IELTS exams.
There is no limit to participating in this exam, and if you do not pass one course, you can register for the next courses as well. But the candidates whose scores are higher than 75 cannot participate in the exam for one year. Because the capacity for academic and educational centers is limited. The validity of the MSRT exam certificate is two years after taking the exam. This test does not have a negative score and the passing score is 50 or higher (out of 100). Of course, it varies depending on the university in question.
