The test does not directly assess information gained by the test taker from courses during his/her study or from specific books or references; therefore, it does not require prior preparation but rather relies on measuring the extent of a test taker’s proficiency in the English language through general study, reading, and use. Those who plan to take the test should review the questions and instructions, which will help them familiarize themselves with the nature of the test and its questions before taking it.
