Hi John,
This is my first CBE exam and I don’t fully understand what is meant by this:
The live exam is worth a total of 110 marks, 10 marks of which are for questions that do not count towards your final result and are included for quality assurance purposes. So we have 110 marks to score 50? Or this 10 additional are clearly shown as additional and is not even worth to waste time to answer them?
Thanks for the clarification!

I understand that you cannot know which question is seeded questions and they would not included in the total marks.

Vu is correct. The 5 questions (totally 10 marks) will not be included in your total mark.
You will not know which these questions are – they are there to ensure the standard of the exam is the same for everyone.
