Catatan
Nilai masing-masing Writing Section sobat dapat dihitung dengan rumus berikut:
(Skor kriteria 1 + Skor kriteria 2 + Skor kriteria 3 + Skor kriteria 4) dibagi 4

Nilai keseluruhan Writing Section sobat dapat dihitung dengan rumus berikut:
(1x skor Writing Task 1 + 2x skor Writing Task 2) dibagi 3. Average dari skor ini adalah overall score sobat. Perlu diingat juga bahwa ada kemungkinan sobat akan mendapat nilai dengan pecahan sedikit diatas atau di bawah .0 atau .5. Hal ini dapat dijelaskan dengan peraturan berikut:


  • Jika nilai overall sobat memiliki desimal kurang .25, maka harus dibulatkan ke bawah. Misal, jika nilai sobat adalah 7.15, maka harus dibulatkan ke bawah menjadi 7.0 saja.

  • Jika nilai overall sobat memiliki desimal lebih dari .75, maka harus dibulatkan ke atas. Misal, jika nilai sobat 6.85, maka harus dibulatkan ke atas menjadi 7.0
