Thanks Joe,Originally Posted by joebloggs
TOEIC Is on the list but doesn't mention classic test, but for the A1 test
Certificates awarded from January 2009, you need the following mark to pass.
Listening &
Reading - 120
Speaking &
Writing - 80
so from this, it doesn't look like you can just do the listening and speaking parts (the test you've mentioned (L & R i take it is listening and reading !))
looks like she might have to do the whole test (around about 1hr long) just to be able to do and get marks for the listening and speaking parts
might be a good idea to email the company in the Uk from the link and ask them which is valid and easier

I think you might be right and she might have to do the whole tests i.e. 2 tests! I took your advice and emailed the company and also VFS. To be honest the replies were not crystal clear - somewhat ironic considering they are conducting English tests!!!!!! Why could they not have a test just for Speaking & Listening instead of having Speaking in one test and Listening in another?????????? I'm concerned now that she is going to have travel from the provinces to Manila more than once to do these tests.
Can anyone in this forum please tell me in simple English the following :-
1. What test(s) need to be taken.
2. The approximate costs.
Many thanks
