Mock assessments are a great way to judge how ready you are to sit your Functional Skills exams and to prepare for the types of questions you will be asked to answer during your examination.

Tips on how to use the mock assessments

• Practice your timings – for your writing examination you have 60 minutes, can you answer both questions in that amount of time? Make sure you leave time aside to proofread and check your grammar.
• Sit the mock paper as you would an exam – make sure you’re in a private room, with no access to the internet or your phone to Google things.
• Use the mark scheme to mark your answers – you’re looking for about 60% of the marks for a comfortable pass.
