TEST FORMAT
Be familiar with the test item types and the administrative aspects of the examination, such as the total number of questions, how much time is allocated for the entire exam, how that time is distributed, and the like. In order to ensure the accuracy of the information, it is best to refer to the official site of the examinations board.
Please note that some examination boards allow the use of dictionaries (either monolingual or bilingual, or both) so it is worth checking whether or not this option is available.
