Question order is the same as the information in the text.
Always:

• 
  Identifying information (True/False/Not Given)
  
• 
  Short Answer Questions
  
• 
  Multiple Choice
  
• 
  Matching Sentence Endings
  
• 
  Identifying the writer’s views and claims (Yes/No/Not Given)
  
• 
  Sentence Completion
  

Mostly:

• 
  Note, Table, Flow-chart Completion and Diagram Labelling
  
• 
  Summary Completion (with/without a box)
  

These questions take the information in the passage and put it into a different format (e.g. notes, a diagram etc.). The new format may organise the information differently (e.g. according to dates). Use any headings to help you.
Never:

• 
  Matching Headings
  
• 
  Matching information (Which paragraph contains the following information?)
  
• 
  Matching Features
