OET Writing, marked
Referral letters scored on all 6 official Writing criteria, with inline annotations.
What dietitians get
Built around the scenarios dietitians actually face.
A clinical dietitian counselling a patient newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes on dietary changes and meal planning.
Every OET criterion, scored
Intelligibility, fluency, appropriateness, grammar, empathy, patient perspective, structure, gathering, giving — plus a 0–500 overall and an A–E grade.
Pronunciation diagnostics
Industry-grade pronunciation analysis surfaces the specific words that hurt your score — including the clinical vocabulary dietitians say every day.
Cue verification per task
Each role-card has 4–5 tasks. We verify each one against your transcript with the exact quote you used — hit, partial, or miss.
Targets dietitians' weak spots
Most dietitians lose marks in the same places: understanding the patient perspective (culture, finances), information giving (translating nutrition science), empathy around food and body. The recommender targets these criteria first.
Dietetics Writing letters, marked
Write a dietetics referral letter against a profession-specific case, then get it scored on all six official OET Writing criteria — with inline annotations and band-5 + band-7 model answers.
Privacy by default
Your recordings, transcripts, and scores stay on infrastructure we control. Export everything, delete your account, and your data is gone.
Where dietitians use it
Accepted by the regulators dietitians register with.
OET is recognised by healthcare regulators in every major destination. Practice on OET Live and you're preparing for the exact same Speaking format every one of them assesses.

What each board asks for
You may not need Grade B in all four.
The College of Dietitians of Ontario asks for C+ in Listening, Reading and Writing and reserves Grade B for Speaking alone — the only board on this list that singles out the spoken sub-test. Elsewhere the bar is the usual B across the board.

- Compiled from OET's own list of recognising organisations, captured 2026-08-21. One row per country: where several bodies gate registration, the table shows the one that registers dietitians specifically.
- Rows marked "not published" are bodies OET lists as accepting the test without stating a grade. They do accept OET — the number simply has to come from the regulator directly.
- Always confirm against the regulator before you book. A board can change its requirement between our weekly refresh and your application, and some accept scores combined across two sittings while others do not.
The answer for one country
A page per destination, stating what dietitians need there and which board decides — built to be linked when somebody asks.
More detail: how the 0–500 score maps to a letter grade and the full list of countries and regulators that accept OET.

Phrase bank
Four phrases worth drilling.
Internalise these and you'll have go-to language for the moments that matter most in migrating dietitians' consultations.
Culture-sensitive opener
“Food is personal — can I ask what your typical day of eating looks like before we talk about changes?”
Translating science
“When we talk about glycaemic load, we just mean how quickly a food raises your blood sugar...”
Practical planning
“Let's pick one realistic change for next week, rather than overhauling everything at once.”
Comprehension check
“What would you tell a friend about what we just agreed?”
Now scoring OET Writing
Not just Speaking — OET Writing for dietitians, too.
Write a dietetics referral letter against a profession-specific case — timed under exam conditions, or untimed with hints and model answers — and get it marked on all six official OET Writing criteria. Inline annotations show the phrases that cost you marks, and band-5 + band-7 sample answers show the next band up. There is no word-count penalty: length is judged only through relevance and summarising.
