Which OET Scores Do You Need?

Examples of regulator-specific OET score requirements
Registration routeListeningReadingWritingSpeaking
UK NMC: Nursing350350300350
UK GMC: Medicine350350350350
Australia: Ahpra, tests from 23 April 2026350360350360

Requirements checked 2 October 2026. These are score summaries, not the full registration rules. Check the linked regulator for profession, test mode, score combining, validity and other application requirements.

There is no single OET passing score for every route. NMC allows qualifying scores from two full sittings under its conditions. GMC requires the qualifying Medicine scores in the same, most recent test. Ahpra has separate dated and combining rules. We help you plan against the right requirement.

Official test fees are separate. OET currently publishes a general full-test fee of AUD 587. Check the official fee guidance and your booking checkout for the applicable charge. EduDelphi provides preparation and booking guidance, not the official test.

OET or IELTS: Which Test Fits Your Plans?

Start with the test your receiving organisation accepts. Then consider the tasks and the preparation that suit your needs.

OET Preparation

Healthcare English, profession-specific letters and patient roleplays. A suitable option when your regulator accepts OET and you want preparation built around clinical communication.

IELTS Preparation

Broader academic or general English tasks. Check the test version and scores required for your study, registration or other route.

Explore our IELTS coaching in Dubai if IELTS fits your plans.

Neither test is automatically easier. OET results alone do not provide professional registration, employment or a visa.

OET Training for Healthcare Teams

Prepare nurses, doctors and allied healthcare professionals through private cohorts and tailored schedules. We work with hospitals, clinics, healthcare employers and recruitment teams.

Combine shared Listening and Reading preparation with profession-specific Writing and Speaking. Adapt the timetable around shifts and use individual feedback to support each learner’s priorities.

Classroom, live online, onsite and blended options are available. Discuss your team with our corporate training team.

OET Course Questions

Who can join the OET course?

Nurses, doctors and other healthcare professionals preparing for OET can join. We support all 12 OET professions. Your consultation covers your profession, English level, destination and test plans so you can choose the right preparation route.

How long is the OET course?

The core programme provides 36 live teaching hours. Your preparation calendar depends on your starting level, target scores and schedule. Private, intensive and focused skill support can be adapted to your needs. There is no universal preparation time for every learner.

What are the OET course fees in Dubai?

Tuition is quoted in AED for your selected classroom, live online, private or team programme. Your quotation confirms VAT treatment, schedule, personal feedback, mocks, resources and support before enrolment. Official OET test fees are separate.

Can I study only OET Writing or Speaking?

Yes. Choose focused Writing or Speaking support, including personal letter corrections, rewrite reviews or assessed roleplays. Your consultation helps identify the support that fits your profession and target scores.

What if my English needs improvement before OET?

Your starting level matters. We can build healthcare-English and language support into your preparation before increasing timed test practice. After enrolment, your assessment helps set a realistic study plan; there is no guaranteed score or fixed timeline for every learner.

Can I attend OET classes online from Abu Dhabi or Sharjah?

Yes. Live online OET classes are available across the UAE, including Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and the northern emirates. Classroom learning is available in Dubai near BurJuman Metro. Ask about evening, weekend and private schedules.

Is 350 the passing score in every OET skill?

No. Your receiving regulator sets the requirement. NMC Nursing requires 350 in Listening, Reading and Speaking and 300 in Writing. GMC Medicine requires 350 in all four skills. Ahpra’s thresholds for tests from 23 April 2026 are 350, 360, 350 and 360 respectively. Always check the complete rules for your route.

Can all 12 professions take OET on computer?

OET’s current computer test supports all 12 professions. Available venues and dates vary. Check the official booking service and your regulator’s acceptance rules before paying. Computer Writing is typed, so include timed typing practice in your preparation.

Can I take OET at home from the UAE?

OET@Home has provider eligibility and availability conditions and is not accepted by every regulator. Do not assume it is an unrestricted alternative to a UAE test venue. Check both OET’s current access rules and your receiving regulator before booking.

Can I retake only the OET skill I need to improve?

Partial resits are available only under OET’s relevant booking rules, including a previous full test, and must also be accepted by your receiving organisation. Some registration routes require all four skills in each sitting. Check both sets of rules before selecting a resit.

When will I receive my OET results?

Result timing depends on the test mode and completion of the required sub-tests. Follow the release date for your booking and OET’s current results guidance. Do not rely on one fixed turnaround for every test.

Is EduDelphi the official OET test provider?

EduDelphi provides OET preparation, feedback and candidate guidance. The official examination, scoring and booking rules belong to OET. Your regulator makes the decision on professional registration and accepted English evidence.
