Real test conditions

Before you launch the test

This is the computer-based test format, not a quiz page: one clock, a question palette, and no way back once a section closes. Read these first.

  • It runs in full screen. The test takes over the screen when it starts, the way the real computer-based test does.
  • Leaving it is counted. Switching away is recorded and warned about; the third time, the paper is submitted for you.
  • The clock runs for 60 minutes. Set aside that long, uninterrupted. It starts when you begin, keeps running if you close the tab, and submits the paper at zero.
  • 3 timed sections. Each section has its own limit, and a section you have finished cannot be returned to.

Ideas to brush up before this mock

  • Partnership profit is shared in the ratio of capital multiplied by the months it stayed invested
  • Boat speed in still water is half the sum of downstream and upstream speeds
  • Probability of drawing two balls of one colour can be found with combinations or by multiplying the conditional probability of each draw
  • Floors are numbered from the bottom, so read above and below clues carefully

Ways to sharpen these question types

  • Read the whole cloze passage once before filling any blank
  • In two-row seating, note which row faces north and which faces south before placing anyone
  • For shortest distance, find net horizontal and vertical movement, then apply Pythagoras once
