How to calculate the score? READING In Cambridge B2 First you do Reading and Use of English together in one exam paper, but to calculate your score we have to break them up again. The exam paper has seven parts and for the reading portion we have to look just at parts 1, 5, 6 and 7. Reading counts 20% towards your overall result. Parts 1, 5, 6 and 7 of the Reading & Use of English paper count towards your reading score.
For parts 1 and 7 you get 1 mark and for parts 5 and 6 you get 2 marks for each correct answer. There is a total of 42 possible marks in this part. USE OF ENGLISH Because parts 1, 5, 6 and 7 make the reading portion of the exam, you have to calculate your score for Use of English from parts 2, 3 and 4. Use of English counts 20% towards your overall result.
Parts 2, 3 and 4 of the Reading & Use of English paper count towards your Use of English score. For parts 2 and 3 you get 1 mark and for part 4 you get up to 2 marks for each correct answer. There is a total of 28 possible marks in this part. LISTENING Listening is easy to calculate.
You don’t have to break up the exam or worry about different marks in different parts. Everything is straightforward. Listening counts 20% towards your overall result. Every part of the listening exam counts.
You get 1 mark for each correct answer. There is a total of 30 possible marks in this part. WRITING Calculating your score in the writing paper is a little bit more difficult than in the three previous parts. First of all, you have to write two texts so you have to take the sum of the two results and secondly, there are four different criteria to mark your writing.
In total, that’s eight different marks to combine. Writing counts 20% towards your overall result. The two texts you write in the exam count in equal parts towards your result. You can get up to 5 marks for each of the following criteria: o Content o Communicative achievement o Organisation o Language 4.
With two texts and four marks for each text there is a total of 40 possible marks in the writing paper. Speaking counts 20% towards your overall result. The different criteria in the speaking exam count differently towards your total score. You can get up to 5 marks for each of the following criteria: o Grammar & Vocabulary (Multiply your marks by 2, so there are 10 possible marks) 10 o Discourse management (Multiply your marks by 2, so there are 10 possible marks) o Pronunciation (Multiply your marks by 2, so there are 10 possible marks) o Interactive communication (Multiply your marks by 2, so there are 10 possible marks) o Global (Multiply your marks by 4, so there are 20 possible marks) 4.
