FRConfused about F7 Exam Format

TTalha8y ago
Hello, I'll be re-appearing in F7 March 2018 CBE session so today i was just checking out lastest (i think) version of Kaplan F7 exam kit for revision purposes as i was scrolling down i came across the exam format page and it got me really confused because according to the Kaplan exam kit the exam format is as the image linked below https://imgur.com/a/niuNt After seeing this i quickly went to check F7 cbe specimen on accaglobal and it still shows the old format https://imgur.com/a/FynpE So can someone clear me up that on which one of these formats the exam will be based upon? Thanks

The format is as the second link. Thirty 2-mark multiple choice questions and two 20-mark long questions.

A slight correction to that - the CBE format also includes 10 marks of "seeded content" - questions that don't count towards your mark but are used to check consistency between different sets of questions. You won't know which questions these are but they will be included in the multiple choice section. So there are in fact 35 2-mark questions.
