Hi

I would like to know how the 'Choose TWO letters or Choose THREE letters' type question in listening section scored ?
For instance, Choose A-G
if I get 1 out of 2 correct, Will I be scored or I need to get all the answers correct ? :(

Big thanks ^ ^

Hi Jumbboy,
It depends on how the question is set. There are two possibilities:
1. You must write all the letters as answers to one question. Here you must get all of them correct.
2. You must write the letters as answers to separate questions. Here you get one mark for each correct letter.
Thanks for your question!
All the best,
David
