Hee! The only meaning of "band score" I know is a publication in musical notation of all the parts played by the instruments in a particular musical composition for band, used by the conductor of the band. Surely this is not the intended meaning in your example.

I've never taken that test but here's what I found searching the net

For their performance on each of the four sub tests (listening, speaking, reading and writing), candidates receive separate scores on a band scale of 1 to 9 and then an overall band score in which individual scores are added together and then averaged.
