Exam tips
Paper format
- Duration
- 60 min
- Total marks
- 100
- Weighting
- 100%
- Question types
- Speaking Communication 30 items; Reading Communication 30 items
- Use about 28 minutes for Speaking Communication and 30 minutes for Reading Communication, leaving 2 minutes to check unanswered items. Because both domains carry 30 items, do not let one long passage steal time from the other half.
- For dialogue items, label the function before reading the options: apology, suggestion, refusal, request, clarification, agreement, or complaint. This prevents choosing grammatically correct but socially wrong responses.
- In Reading Communication, scan the item stems for main idea, detail, inference, vocabulary, and reference tasks. Then read with a purpose instead of rereading the whole passage for every question.
Common mistakes
Register
Choosing a response that is grammatically correct but too informal for the situation.
How to avoid: Check speaker relationship and purpose before reading answer choices.
Reading inference
Selecting an option because it repeats words from the passage.
How to avoid: Underline the sentence that proves the idea, not just the matching vocabulary.
Vocabulary
Using the first dictionary meaning instead of contextual meaning.
How to avoid: Replace the word in the sentence and test whether the tone still fits.
