The written test consists of 1) rewriting a hotel review (they say to edit it in a tiny box which is ridiculous - you need to rewrite the entire thing on another piece of paper); choosing a photo from a choice of four and reasoning why it should be the main pic; saying which other pics should be included and why. 2) reading five reviews from customers and then writing a hotel review based on this. 3) writing a letter to an unhappy hotelier who wants his hotel to be listed as the best one in the area. 4) writing a destination review - they give a couple of pointers that can be included. 5) proofreading You have no internet access and you can't type anything - so moving paragraphs around just isn't an option! What you write first, is what they read, pretty much.
