  2. Mark every answer on the separate answer sheet, not on this paper.
  3. Choose one answer (A–E) for each question and shade the matching lozenge in pencil.
  4. Work quickly and carefully: about 30 seconds per question. If a question is hard, move on and come back.
  5. Rub out any answer you want to change. Do not leave two marks for one question.
Example: to choose answer C, shade it like this: ABCDE
