LISTENING

1. Read the questions properly.

2. Read the questions before the listening starts.

3. Answer the questions on the list and transfer to your answer sheet later. (because there may be
corrections/misleading speech) [So, listen to the entire information before answering]

4. Focus on the information. It may not be repeated. Write it down as soon as you listen.

5. Spelling matters. Use British English spellings.

READING
1. Spend 15, 20, 25 minutes on the subsequent test sections respectively.

2. Answer directly in the sheet because you won't have time in this section later.

and then read questions.

4. Only use the context and info of the text for True/False.
