It is not true, you are looking at the high points, go down a little further on the same page and you will see the score requirements are same. 6.5 in all except listening 7.5 to get maximum. Don't be misguided.

against the above correlation table if it is to the applicants advantage, i.e., resulting in more points
for language proficiency.
