Product Description
The test consists of two short sections, each of seven minutes.
- In part one the candidate chooses from a selection of four words, the one word which best fits the meaning of the text. This part is primarily word knowledge but also requires a basic understanding of grammar in looking at contextual cues.
- Part two is more concerned with accuracy and understanding. The candidate is required to find the errors in a passage of text which can be spelling, punctuation, grammar or the use of inappropriate words. In addition, the subject of the text is unlikely to be familiar to the candidates and therefore the ability to grasp new topics can also be assessed.
