Ah English testing, another in a long line of rorts the Aussie public meekly put up with. Case in point, a friend is required to undertake English testing to practise her profession, this despite having 2 overseas degrees in English and a more recent Aussie qualification. Imagine the consternation when she failed the English test, on enquiry; much tittering behind hands of native Mandarin and Farsi speakers administering said test - you mean you took test without going on our special training course beforehand - you'll never pass like that! Go figure.
