Read full description

OET Prep is independent practice for nurses preparing for the Occupational English Test. Practice works offline, with no account. Practice all four sub-tests in the exam format: • Listening: 8 full tests with note completion and multiple choice over healthcare recordings, voiced with Australian, British, American, Irish and New Zealand accents. • Reading: 8 full tests with the Part A, B and C structure. • Writing: 8 letter tasks from case notes (referral, discharge, transfer and community support), each with a model answer and commentary by criterion, plus a guide to common errors and 8 Writing decision labs. • Speaking: 8 nursing role-plays with private recording on your device, a phrase bank, a model dialogue and a nine-criterion self-check. Plan for your exam date Set your exam date and see the countdown. Pro builds a day-by-day study plan to that date, weighted toward your weakest skill, and can remind you each day with that day's task. Exam Mode Take a test under exam conditions. Listening audio plays once. Reading stops Part A at 15 minutes, then gives you 45 minutes for Parts B and C. Writing gives you 5 minutes to read the case notes and 40 to write. Speaking runs 3 minutes of preparation, then a 5 minute role-play that records itself. Short daily practice Practice one Part B or Part C set at a time for Listening and Reading, with a rationale for every answer. A daily vocabulary review covers case-note abbreviations, the spellings Listening Part A needs, and how to turn notes into letter language. Also in the app: • Mistake Review collects the questions you got wrong so you can redo them. • Partner practice shows the patient's brief, so a friend or colleague can play the patient. • Grade requirements from NMBA (Australia), NMC (UK), NMBI (Ireland) and NCNZ (New Zealand), with a link to each official page. • An Exam-Day Coach that runs four focused steps and points you to your next priority. Free: • One full Listening test, one full Reading test, one Writing task, one Speaking role-play and one Writing decision lab. Exam Mode works on the free test and tasks. • The Part B and C drills from the first Listening and Reading tests, and the core abbreviations deck with its daily review. • The countdown, grade requirements, daily reminder, study streak and the full reference section. OET Prep Pro opens every test and task with Exam Mode, every drill and vocabulary deck, the full study plan with plan reminders, all of Mistake Review, partner practice for every role-play, and your full practice history. Choose Monthly, 3-Month or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage them in your App Store account settings. How it works: • All content is original and written for this app. It never uses real OET papers. • Nothing is marked by AI. You check your work against the criteria, and the app shows your raw correct answers, never an official score or a predicted grade. • Recordings and drafts stay on your device.
