Reverse engineering (RE) can play an important role in the re-designing tests in L2 English. It can also enrich the aim of teaching the same as raising children through academic achievement. In addition, it can play a key role in helping students understand how much their test is valid by using Standard reverse engineering (SRE). This paper is a literature review seeks to make a general second language test standardized through SRE by Popham's Model. According to this model, a test becomes standardized by considering the constructs of a standardized test through five steps respectively. This model evaluates participants' English test as foreign language proficiency. In order to explain it more, one example of writing the test in the site of the State Education Department Office of Bilingual Education in New York is explained in detail. This study can be used as a guide to other second language testers who wish to standardize their tests.
