Candidates are not penalised for failing to complete their answer in the space provided. For reasons of practicality, a 4 page booklet is used at Entry level. Centres are required to provide extra paper for candidates to plan and draft answers and to complete their answers if they run out of space. Where candidates require extra paper to complete their answers, this is collected at the end of the test and marked in the normal way. All Cambridge ESOL material is extensively trialled before use in live tests, and one aim of trialling is to establish that the majority of candidates are able to complete their answer in the space provided.
