Before you start

Timing, audio and how the run is protected

Timed

The timer runs on the server, so refreshing will not give you extra time. Listening audio plays a fixed number of times, as set for this practice paper.

Total: 90 minutes · section time adds up to 80 min.

Learning mode

No timer. Audio can be replayed freely and answers are explained immediately.

Audio

  • Listening: plays once · no seeking · no pausing

The play count and the seek and pause rules are stored on each section rather than hard-coded in the player, so an editor can change them without a deployment.

Saved

  • Answers autosave as you go — a refresh or a dropped connection loses nothing.
  • The deadline lives on the server, so the client clock is never trusted.
  • You can flag a question and come back to it while section time remains.

Your result

What you get when you submit

A score is the least useful part of a mock examination. The report is built to change what you study tomorrow.

By section

A score per section and per skill, so a listening problem cannot hide behind a good reading result.

Accuracy by question type

Accuracy broken down by question type — matching, cloze, ordering, true/false — because they fail for different reasons.

Vocabulary gaps

The exact words the wrong answers tested, taken from the diagnostic tags on each question.

Grammar gaps

The patterns behind the wrong answers, each linking straight to its grammar lesson.

Time per question

Where you stalled. A slow correct answer is a different problem from a fast wrong one.
