can somebody please tell me what and expanded hearing test is as well as what is involved with a HINT test?

these were mentioned for my next visit. Just trying to get an idea of what I'm in for.
 
HINT - Hearing In Noise Test

It is basically used to test your ability to discriminate a sound that you want to hear (e.g. speech from a single person) from background noise.

Here is a link to a test that will give you an idea what the HINT testing will be like. This is not a real test, but gives you an idea what it will be like.
