Very Important Information: Mock Tests

Below you will find the dates for the Mock Exams during this year.

Some points to consider:

You will have a booklet with 4 complete exams (Reading & Use of English paper, Writing paper and 

Listening paper). This booklet is to be used at York, you will only take it home during the winter break 

to complete Mock #2. You must bring it back to class once we start again. 

It is yours, take care of it and keep a neat record of your corrected answer sheets. 

They will be essential for the revision period before the exam date.

Concerning the papers, please note:

• Listening paper. 

It will always be completed during class time. So make all your efforts not to be absent on that day. 
Before the class starts, ask for your booklet and an answer sheet to the secretaries. 

So, please, do come some minutes earlier.
When you finish, check you have written your name on the answer sheet, place it in the booklet and 

hand it to your teacher.

• Reading and Use of English paper, and
• Writing paper

Both of them are always on a Friday. You have to come to York during opening hours and ask for 

your booklet and an answer sheet to the secretaries.
When you finish, check you have written your name on the answer sheet, place it in the booklet and 

hand it back to the secretaries.

General advice:

• As you can see, you are responsible for your Mock Exams. We, teachers, believe you can handle this.
• Mock Exams are intended to give you full practice, constant evaluation of your progress 

         and help you build the strategies you need to succeed in the exam.

• Complete every paper with responsibility, do not use dictionaries or any other help that is not allowed 

         during the exam. 

• Very important: Be aware of the time set for each paper and do not exceed the limit (when you 

         are doing the Reading and Use of English, and the Writing papers)
