Bologna Unit How to complete the test correctly:

  1. At the beginning of the test, you will see a screen where you must select the level to start the exam. You will choose the option “please choose a starting point for me”.
  2. Each screen presents a question. Once you click on "Next", you cannot go back.
  3. Wrong answers and non-responses left in the answer spot are equivalent. So, do not leave the answer spots empty, but complete them.
  4. The test must be completed to be evaluated. Therefore, it is essential to have reached the "End of test" screen within the 59th minute. To do this, you need to pay attention to the time available. The stopwatch will appear on the screen at the top on the right in the format mm: ss,and a popup will warn you when there will be 15 minutes left until the end of the test.
