Timing

To get the best result possible , you need to  manage your time.
If you look at the way the test is organised, you will see that we expect you to spend almost 50% of your time on the Reading section. Exactly how much time you spend on it will depend on how fast a reader you are.
As you can see, each section has equal value. This means that each Reading Question is worth twice as much as each question in the Grammar and Vocabulary sections.
Make sure you manage your time successfully!
