This might be a silly question. Anyway, I registered for the June 2017 exam, but still not quite sure about the format of the exam. Is it computer based or paper based (I am in U.S. around NY area)? People are saying Ethics part should be completed in 27 min. I don't quite get it, are they going to collect that part in 27 min? confused....

Format for level1 is 2 x 3-hr paper based exams each consisting of 120 questions. On average that means each question should take you 1.5 minutes (180 mins for 120 questions). Ethics is 15% of the exam or in other words 18 questions. Therefore 27 mins is 18 x 1.5 so the info you were given is correct. The whole paper is completed before it is collected so if u spend more than 27 mins it is no big deal - just means you will have to make it up on the other subject areas.

I passed! I did not get a chance to tell you before the exam - but your site was excellent. I will definitely take it next year for Level II.
