How to Use This Book This book has been created to help you achieve the highest possible score in OET. Each part includes easy-to-learn strategies and relevant test-taking tips. There’s also a weekly study planner, access to listening tracks, sample writing tasks, and a full length Practice Test with Writing and Speaking specific to the Nursing and Medicine healthcare professions. Follow the steps below to get the best use from this book. Step One: Read Part One In the first part of this book, you will be given an overview of OET, learn what to expect on Test Day, and learn about the key strategies to help you achieve a high OET score. Step Two: Fill Out Your Study Planner OET is a high stakes test. If you want to score well, you cannot squeeze all of your study time into one week. Before getting started with the exercises in this book, you should turn to Part 2 and fill out your study planner with realistic study goals. You should consider how many days you have until you take OET, and how much time you will realistically be able to dedicate to revising every day. Remember that if you have worked all day, you may not have the energy to learn new strategies. Instead, use the time to revise the parts of the test you have already mastered, and save the more challenging parts for when you are fresh and rested. [Show More]
