    • With this option, test takers who do not pass the B2 First (FCE) for Schools and wish to resit the exam will be entitled to take it within one year following the date of their first written exam at no additional cost.

We hope that the retake option will help reduce the anxiety and stress some test takers May feel when taking the test and enable them to perform to the best of their abilities.
