The OET (Occupational English Test) is a language proficiency test specifically designed for healthcare professionals who wish to work or study in an English-speaking environment. Nurses, in particular, are required to pass the OET to demonstrate their proficiency in English as it relates to their profession.
The online OET practice test for nurses typically consists of four sub-tests: Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking. The Reading and Listening sub-tests are designed to assess the candidate’s ability to understand and interpret healthcare-related texts and conversations. The Writing sub-test evaluates the candidate’s ability to write a letter or report on a healthcare-related topic. Finally, the Speaking sub-test assesses the candidate’s ability to communicate effectively with patients and colleagues.
