City & Guilds
City & Guilds Functional Skills Maths Level 2
One sitting, two sections, 60 marks. The pass mark is 30 or 31.
| Section | Time | Marks | Questions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Non-calculator | 25 minutes | 15 | 10 one-mark questions, then two short problems for 5 marks |
| Calculator | 80 minutes | 45 | 1 to 6 marks each, many with a decision |
Good to know
- The non-calculator paper is collected before you get your calculator.
- Questions mix multiple choice, short answers and longer worked problems.
- A scientific calculator is allowed but not needed. There is no protractor at Level 2.
- Both sections add together for the pass mark: a weak non-calculator score can be made up later.
