There are 40 questions in Listening and each correct answer is awarded with one mark. There are no half marks. After that the marks scored are converted to a band and then all bands in each section are collectively averaged to get the final band. Band scores for the listening test and the final band are given as a whole band or a half band. The rough convertible table is as under:
