How the C2 Proficiency (CPE) score is calculated

Each paper (Reading, Use of English, Writing, Listening, Speaking) is converted separately to the Cambridge English Scale. Your overall score is the average of all of them, and they all count the same. That overall score decides your grade and the CEFR level on your certificate.
