a speaking exam

[Aziza]

Hi. I've made a spelling mistake while answering one of the questions today. As soon as I tried to correct my mistake, I saw that the examiner wrote something quickly in her notebook. Will she subtract an entire band for that? Thanks in advance

Hi Aziza,
There's not enough information to go on with your case, but examiners and invigilators are not permitted to deduct bands for infringements of rules.

Thanks a lot for your response. I'll simply wait for my upcoming results. On the whole, the examiner was very friendly and the questions weren't so complicated. So, I'll keep my fingers crossed. ))
