Questions

Is this the official test?

No. Words on Repeat is not affiliated with the authority that runs the test. The trainer prepares you; you sit the real test at an approved test centre.

Where do the questions come from?

Every question is written by Words on Repeat from the facts in the handbook Life in the United Kingdom: A Guide for New Residents. No question is copied from the live test or from another publisher.

How is the mock exam scored?

Like the real test: 24 questions in 45 minutes, and you pass with 18 right answers. A question counts as right only when you choose exactly the right answers.

In which languages are the explanations?

In English. The questions stay in English, as in the test.

Language Exam Kits

Need the language certificate too?

Most citizenship routes also ask for a language certificate. The Exam Kits prepare you for it, and some include a Test Trainer.
