The purpose of this thesis is to examine the factors that motivate students to take the Cambridge International English Exam. The study will analyze both intrinsic and extrinsic motivations, including personal goals, academic requirements, career aspirations, and social influences. The research will combine theoretical insights from language learning motivation with empirical data collected through questionnaires and interviews with students. The aim is to identify common motivational patterns and provide recommendations for teachers and institutions to support students in preparing for international English exams.
