How it's calculated

The overall band is the average of the four sections, rounded to the nearest half band. If the average ends in .25 it rounds up to .5; if it ends in .75 it rounds up to the next whole band. For example, 6.25 → 6.5 and 6.75 → 7.0. Each section is 0 to 9 in 0.5 steps.

Example

Listening 6.5, Reading 6.5, Writing 5.0, Speaking 7.0 averages 6.25, giving an overall band of 6.5. A difference in one section can change the result.
