Is there a paper to download?
No — OlympAI does not publish a practice paper for this exam. Humming Bird does not publish a section structure or a marking scheme.
The paper
What the body's own paper looks like
| Section | Questions | Marks each |
|---|---|---|
| Single paper — multiple choice | 40 | not published |
| Total | 40 | 50 minutes |
Humming Bird publishes a question count and a duration and no marking scheme at all: no mark total, no marks per question, and no statement about negative marking anywhere on its site. That is why the table above says "not published" rather than assuming one mark a question. Two further cautions, both from the body's own pages. Its FAQ says exams "may have 30 to 50 questions depending on the grade and subject" while the HMO page states 40 — the body contradicts itself on its own question count, so treat 40 as the paper page's figure rather than a guarantee. And whether your child sits this online or on paper is the school's decision, not the family's, unless you register directly, in which case it is always online.
