Producing Blank Control Table in Exam

[PJW]

Hi,

Does 20 min reading time is partly to go through Part B questions or will this time be allowed to have a glance of Mod 3 layout.

Also 20 min reading time for Mod 2 applies for layout.(Main line or Rapid transit)

We were told that the layout will be given only after the commencement of exam time (i.e. after reading time).

Could any one clarify me ASAP.

Regards

Just one point that I do need to check on for this year as I have assumed it to be the same as before, as far as I know it is ten minutes reading time (that was extended from five a few years ago), but I will confirm that later.

I am not sure about this but it does seem that candidates at "foreign" exam centres may be being allowed longer reading time this year- if so I am not sure precisely what rules apply. I could understand that it would be reasonable to allow greater reading time for long bits of English prose as the module 3 written questions but NOT the actual layout for the Control Tables since language is much less of an issue.

I must emphasise that I do not know even that there is greater reading time permitted though this is something that I have previously been arguing for for those whose first language (in whatever country they sit the exam) is not English- this is pire conjecture but I do see that there could be rationale for what has been reported though I'd have assumed that the layout would be given after the end of the EXTRA reading time.
