- Each section has its own 20-minute timer and must be taken in order.
- Negative marking: one-quarter of the marks for that question is deducted for each wrong answer.
- You must clear the cut-off in every section, so do not neglect any section.
After the test you get a report: your score in every section and topic, why each wrong answer went wrong, what your score could have been, your speed against accuracy, and what to fix first.
