FAQ related to Reading and Listening  

Question 1)

On an answer in the listening test has a difference between from “6:55pm” to “6:55”?

And when we talk about money: if I put just “1” instead of “$1” is wrong?So, what is the way to write an answer when the subject is money and time? 

Answer 1) 

You have to look and see what is required in the gap. For example:

$ _ = you must only write “1” because the dollar sign is there. “$1” would be wrong.

___ = write $1.

Same for times.

Question 2) 

I wrote “behavior”, and not “behavior” as it is common within the UK. Is that completely wrong or I stand a chance of not losing the mark? whether spelling a word the American way instead of the British one may cost me the mark?
