The speaking element:

form of an oral interview amongst the candidate and an examiner. During the
interview you will require to answer questions asked by the examiner. You are
asked to speak at length on a topic given by the examiner and provide and
explain your views on a variety of issues related to that topic.

General questions about yourself, your life and your
interests.
·
A brief discussion on a given topic.
·

who will not properly participate in the discussion with examiner will surely
fail to achieve their prospective band score. The reason behind this is that
they are not able to showcase their expertise in the language.
