OET Test results explained
The four sub-tests that make up the OET Test are reported on a scale from 0 to 500 in ten-point increments (e.g. 350, 360, 370 etc). The numerical score will be mapped to a separate letter grade for each sub-test ranging from A (highest) to E (lowest).
OET Test candidates will receive a Statement of Results with your score for each of the sub-tests on a scale from 0-500.
Whilst there is no pass score for the OET Test, most recognising boards and councils require candidates to score at least 350 in each of the four sub-tests. Always check with the relevant boards and councils that regulate your profession.
