Speaking Exam did not record!

Post by violette_32 »

I just finished my Speaking exam today. I left the testing center confident that I nailed the 7. However, when I was two blocks away from IDP, they called me and asked to retake the exam! The examiner wasn't able to record my Speaking so I had to redo it! Unfortunately, I think I have not performed well on my second test as I was not as mentally prepared and adrenaline-fueled as the first one :cry: What exam will be graded? Btw I took UKVI so there was also a video recording. Can't they just strip the audio from the first video recording? :cry:

Hi Violette,
Unfortunately, your recorded test will be graded.
On the video recording for UKVI, there is no audio.
Can I ask where you took the test?
All the best,
David
