True, False or Not Given: a 3-step method that works

T/F/NG questions are the biggest time sink in the Reading test. Use this method to decide quickly and confidently.

Why this matters

Examiners mark against public band descriptors. When you know what each band asks for, you can practise the exact skill that moves your score.

Step by step

1. Read the question and underline the key words.
2. Plan for two minutes before you start.
3. Check your answer against the task in the last few minutes.

Tip: take a full mock test on BandNine every week and compare your band trend on the dashboard.
