Analyse the questions for OET preparation test
Running out of time
This can happen in both Listening and Reading but is more common in the Reading test. If you don’t have enough time to read all the questions and therefore answer the question, then this is something you will need to work on.
One option is to be stricter with yourself on timing. Part A already has its own time limit, but you will need to divide up the 45 minutes for Parts B and C:
- 10 minutes for Part B
- 35 minutes for Part C with 17.5 minutes per Part C text.
You can further divide this to give yourself a set number of seconds per question and force yourself to move on after this time. Any time you have left, you can return to those questions you haven’t answered to guess an answer or work on some more.
In Listening, the recording keeps going so you break the time up. The only thing you need to do is make sure you answer each question as you hear it and move on with the recording to the next question.
If you dither for a few seconds, you will get left behind which could impact your ability to answer the next question correctly.
You probably won’t know the meaning of all the words you will hear or see during the Listening and Reading sub-tests. But if you are finding unfamiliar vocabulary in each question then this is something you need to work on.
The best way to learn new vocabulary is to both use words you’re comfortable with as well as learn words you are unfamiliar with. You should record words in a notebook which you use for new vocabulary and then include them words in your speaking and writing over the next few days.
