A focused 2-week program that diagnoses exactly which of the 9 official OET Speaking criteria cost you the score — then builds a personal plan to fix it before you sit the exam again.
A retake costs $400+ if you fail again. This program costs a fraction of that — and it's built to make sure you don't have to find out.

OET doesn't average your scores. One weak sub-test — often Speaking — can cancel out three strong ones. And Speaking is graded against 9 official criteria: 4 linguistic, 5 clinical. Most candidates don't fail all nine. They fail 2–3 specific ones, and without expert eyes on their actual performance, it's nearly impossible to know which.
where scores are usually lost the other 6 criteria
Generic AI practice apps give everyone the same case library and the same feedback. They don't tell you what's actually holding your score back — and they don't help you fix it before your next sitting, with a deadline (a job offer, a visa, a registration date) already on the clock.
Your first recorded response is scored by a real OET-experienced assessor against all 9 official criteria — not a generic AI score, a proper breakdown of exactly where you lost points.
Based on your assessor's scoring and your own account of what went wrong last time, we build a personal 14-day plan: which criteria to focus on each day, and which role-play cases target exactly those weaknesses.
Your second recording checks specifically the criteria that were weak — so you see real movement, not a vague "you're improving" comment.
Not a cold assessment — your assessor already knows your history and gives you targeted, specific feedback before the real exam.
This program is built for one specific situation — not general OET preparation.
You're preparing for OET Speaking for the first time. We're built around diagnosing what already went wrong — not general test prep from zero.
We're not examiners ourselves. We've built this program around real OET-experienced assessors who score your responses against the same 9 official criteria used in the actual exam, so you get an outside, professional read on your performance — not our opinion, and not a generic AI score.
That's also why we back the diagnostic-to-progress-check loop with a guarantee, not just a promise: if the second recording doesn't show measurable improvement on the criteria we flagged, you get your $60 back.
Planning for an October retake? OET's next paper-based dates are October 3 and 17 — computer-based tests run almost weekly. Apply now to leave enough runway for the full 2-week program.
Progress guarantee. If your progress-check recording doesn't show measurable improvement on the criteria flagged in your diagnostic, we refund your $60 — no questions asked.
One failed retake costs $400+ and weeks of waiting. This program costs less than a third of that — and it's built specifically to stop you from needing another one. Afterwards, if you're willing, we'd welcome your before/after Speaking scores and a short honest review — entirely optional, and anonymous if you prefer. Only 5 spots available for this round.
This isn't a straightforward checkout — we're matching the pilot to candidates who fit the situation above, so spots go to people it will genuinely help.

A short, friendly call to talk through your situation and your next retake date.
If it's a fit, we'll schedule your diagnostic recording within 2 business days.
Currently focused on nurses, doctors, and healthcare professionals sitting OET for registration in the UK, Ireland, Australia, or New Zealand.
Even better — the more attempts you've had, the more specific data we have to work with in your diagnostic.
Pilot participants keep full access through their final mock interview regardless of program changes after the pilot ends.
Yes. Your recordings are reviewed only by your assigned assessor for scoring and feedback, and aren't shared outside the program.
Why candidates fail — by OET criterion
It's rarely about English level. OET Speaking is scored against 9 specific criteria, and most candidates lose marks on just 2–3 of them — without a proper diagnostic, it's hard to know which, so generic practice just repeats the same mistakes.
It's not about sounding native — it's about being clearly understood. Most candidates lose marks by stressing every word equally instead of emphasising the words that carry meaning.
Fluency isn't about talking fast — it's about staying on track. A thinking pause is fine; restarting your sentence every time you stumble is what actually costs marks.
This scores whether you adjust your language for a patient, not a colleague. "You have gastroesophageal reflux" and "stomach acid is coming back up" carry the same information — very different scores.
It's not about complex sentences — it's about staying clear when the exact word doesn't come to you. Candidates lose marks by freezing instead of paraphrasing around a forgotten term.
Scored from your first greeting to your closing line. Most candidates spend all their prep on the middle of the role-play and leave easy points on the table at the start and end.
This is the criterion examiners say candidates miss most. Most jump straight into giving information without asking how the patient feels first — one simple question fixes it.
It means signposting where the conversation is going, out loud, instead of an unplanned string of questions and answers.
It rewards starting broad, then narrowing down. Opening with a string of yes/no questions sounds like a checklist, not a conversation.
Explaining everything in one breath is one of the fastest ways to lose marks. Chunking the explanation and checking understanding along the way scores higher every time.
Takes about 2 minutes. We review every application personally and get back to you within a few business days.
