Testing receptive skills:
If the aim is to test reading or listening, studentsshould not be asked to write too much.
The students should not be able to guess the correctanswer without understanding the text.
The questions should be reasonably easy to set a mark.

TESTING GRAMMAR AND WRITING:
It is easy to test grammar . As there is a definite answer,
marking is easy.
If the test only focuses on grammar, it will tell us very little about the real abilities the student has to expressmeaning .

MARKING FREE WRITING TESTS: THE MAIN DIFFICULTIES ARE THAT:
The student is likely to make mistakes of different
kind. There is no single correct answer.
