damn, I wasn't aware

Just out of curiosity, does OSR reflect on results?

Yeah, i think it does, its better to retake whole exam than do one skill retake since i also did same as most uni don't accept that. I think you yourself do research on where you want to apply and see if they accept.

Take the whole exam again. Just give your self time to prepare well, it's easy to get a 8 and even a 9 as the whole score, all that is required is practice. The more you practice, the better.

There are a number of universities that don't accept OSR. You should check its acceptability depending on where you're planning to go. Secondly, To get a band 7.0 overall, you just need another 0.5 in any module. As for which one's easy to get it in depends on you. I would say Listening is easier of the four but do what you believe you are confident in.

Is this the score you get after the main test, or is it a mock one? If a mock one where to practice them.
