Subtest
General information
Listening
Time allocation Approximately 60 minutes.
Test format and procedure Candidates are required to listen to an audio tape about two health related issues and to answer questions which test understanding of spoken English. The subtest is not specific to a profession. The Listening Subtest has two sections: •
Part A: an interview between a health professional (eg. a doctor) and a patient
•
Part B: a talk on a general topic related to health, such as a public lecture, or a talk by an expert health professional.
Candidates must complete both sections of the subtest. There are approximately 20 questions to answer. For each section, candidates will be given one minute to look at the questions before listening to the tape. Candidates will need to write a word or phrase in answer to each question. Questions are to be answered while the audio tape is being played. The tape will be played once only. There are pauses on the tape for candidates to finish writing an answer and to enable candidates to read the next question. The instructions on the tape are the same as the instructions written on the test paper.
Assessment procedure The Listening subtest is marked by qualified, experienced English assessors who have been trained in OET assessment procedures. They will decide if the answers given are close enough to be marked correct. The Listening subtest is marked in Melbourne. 10% of candidate responses (papers) are randomly selected and double marked to check assessor reliability.
The sample materials The sample materials consist of: •
an audio tape with two parts, one an interview between a health professional and a patient and the second, a general topic related to health
•
a series of questions related to the passages on the tape
•
a listening test answer key (see page 71).

Using the materials •
Make sure an audioplayer or tape recorder is available.
•
Allow enough time (60 minutes) to do all the sample listening subtest in one sitting, as in the OET.
•
Make sure writing implements are available. Some people prefer to use a pencil because they can rub out incorrect words and re-write their answer. Others find it quicker and easier to use a pen and to cross out incorrect words or phrases.
•
Check answers against the answer key. Many of the questions have several correct answers. Alternative answers are indicated by a slash “/”. Minor variations in wording are acceptable provided the key meaning has been retained.
•
A total score of around 65% on these tests (Part A and B combined) should give you a good chance of getting a satisfactory result.
