Hi There
I have been reading through the site and I have noticed that a few of you mention that different questions types have different marks.
Does anybody know how many marks you can get for the different question types.
Thanks

all questions are one mark.

Dear An apple a day

The test will consist of 80 questions, each will be awarded ONE mark regardless of the difficulty.

Hence why we would always suggest that type Z [as identified by IPS] are always left till last, there will be 2 in each test and can take rather a long time to complete.

Thanks for the quick replies I thought that was the case it just confused me when I read

" Also don't forget that some question types are trickier and take longer while others may just take a second or two. Another trick is to leave the reading information questions to the end because they take the longest and are only worth 1 mark whereas other multiple choice ones are worth several marks"

I see now that they are referring to the time it takes to nwork them out !!!!!!!!
