The said test (4)
I believe the answer is:
oral
This clue is a double definition.
'the said' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'test' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for oral that I've seen before include "Relating to speech" , "By word of mouth, like some exams" , "Via the mouth" , "Exam using speech" , "Type of exam" .)
