The questions test a variety of skills, including understanding main ideas, identifying supporting details, and interpreting implicit meanings. You have to complete the test in 60 minutes.

The interview has three parts: Part 1 is an introduction and general questions, Part 2 is a talk on a topic given by the examiner, and Part 3 is a discussion on abstract topics related to Part 2. The interview lasts between 11 and 14 minutes, and it is designed to test your ability to communicate effectively and fluently in English.
