Is there a deadline to book OET dates before each exam?

Yes, there are several countries like Australia, UK, and Canada that accept the OET score for visa and immigration. Especially for healthcare roles in their country.

Popular nations include New Zealand, Ireland, the UAE, and the USA, where your score on the OET exam is accepted. Scores typically required are Grade B (350+) in all sections for most visa and licensing bodies

Unfortunately, if your internet connection disconnects, the exam platform will attempt to reconnect.

If it connects instantly, then no issues. If it extends, then your test will be terminated immediately. It means you may have to rebook and pay the fee again.

So, make sure you use reliable broadband, and backup plans are essential for OET at Home.

Yes, changing your slot is possible. You will likely have to pay a rescheduling fee. There are strict rules about how close to the test day you can change the booking. Check the OET website right away for their specific rules and costs.

The slot booking process for OET at Home is almost the same as for centre based tests.

Just make sure you have all the set up requirements at your home, if you selec the “OET@Home” format. Also remember, there will be no discount in the fee for booking the home test. 

OET releases the exam date for the entire year at once. You can select your preferred date (When you think you should take the test). Remember, OET slots fill up quickly, especially in major Indian cities. However, you can get another one after one or two days, too.

Still, it is advisable to book at least 2–3 months in advance to secure your desired date and centre. Early booking helps avoid last-minute unavailability or the need to travel long distances for the test.
