To pass, (1) the total score must at or above the passing score (overall pass mark) and (2) the
score for each section must be at or above the passing score for that section (sectional pass
mark ). If the score for one scoring section is below the sectional pass mark, the examinee
fails, no matter how high the total score might be. Furthermore, if there are sections which
an examinee does not sit for, no points will be given for the entire test, including any sections
which the examinee completes. A failing mark will be given to the examinee.
