FAQ’s
What should I do if my internet connection fails while I am taking the test?
If your internet drops out and you can reconnect quickly, the BOPT will allow you to continue from where you were. However, if you run out of time on the BOPT because of an internet failure, please Contact BROWNS.
What should I do if I don’t know the answer to a question?
You need to provide an answer to all the questions in the test. If you don’t know the answer to a question, try to answer it with the best option. Remember that you cannot ‘pass’ or ‘fail’ the BOPT, it is designed to check your level of English.
How long does it take for BROWNS to get back to me after I finish the test?
After viewing your results, BROWNS will reply to you or your agent in one working day.
