Is there a passing score?
No. The MET shows where you are in each section, from A2 to C1, and whoever receives the result decides what they require.
Does Speaking have a separate appointment?
No. In four-skills it is the last section of the same session, taken on a computer right after Reading and Grammar.
Can I take only two skills?
Yes. The two-skills version has only Listening and Reading and Grammar.
