In theory, most questions might be answered correctly by the test takers, who are expected to graduated “high school,” not college/university level of higher education. Therefore, it is quite often the case for the applicants to review some of SAT/AP subject tests. Also, more than 20% of the entire test takers are from the UK, Canada, and the US, but many of those applicants have not scored more than 30 points out of 90. This, somehow, indicates it is more of “fast to read and quick to answer” the question, not just a matter of “difficult” question in each subject.
As of Sep, 2019, the test consists of 60 multiple choice questions altogether, and the applicants are given 100 minutes. The average score of “admitted” students ranges between 45 and 60 (*out of 90 points as possible maximum score,) varying from each university and year. From this perspective, it is quite evident the test is quite competitive and difficult, with an approximation of 50-65% correct answers as “possible admitted scores.”
