How the test works

Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- I inherited a big stamp collection that I would like to sell, but I don't know where to begin. - Was he part of a stamp collecting club? - Yes, there was a small group in his village that used to meet up once a month. He loved these meetups. - I think you should start with them. I'm sure they'll be able to help you and (to) give you good advice. - Yes, you're right. Thanks very much! I think I saw their number somewhere, I just need to find it.

I'll be right with you...
