Doh! Good callout. Confused ETS with EF!
And this is even a good point as well - the EF SET isn't really used in most cases where English fluency is critical (eg. College admissions in the West, Citizenship/PR applications in much of the Commonwealth, etc), so the kinds of students taking EF specific tests might be less prepared or knowledgeable about English and Western culture compared to those preparing for TOEFL or IELTS.
