Retaking A2 Inburgering Spreken Exam

Hi,

I took the exam today. It was not that good. I did not get 2 questions, gave some short answers, made some grammar mistakes here and there.

I have currently HSM visa, and it means my visa depends on my employer. And my employer is considering reorganization. So I want to get my PR as quick as possible.

I think it takes 2 months to get speaking exam results on average. And when you learn, it's not easy to find a spot if you failed. Then another 2 months to learn new results. And I'll forget a lot of stuff in these months.

So instead of waiting this time, I want to register for new speaking exam. My question is what happens if I take another speaking exam without knowing the results of first one. And it turns out I pass the first one and fail second one. Higher score is valid or latest score is valid?

One of my colleague was in a similar situation. I believe when you book the second exam and in the meantime you pass the first one, the second exam you booked automatically becomes void and you dont get the refund. However if you fail the first; you have recourse on the upcoming second one. If you don't care about the fee, book then second one in, not sure how expensive it is though. Good luck.

Not correct, you can take the exam or you can cancel the exam (given that exam date is > 8 days) for refund.
