How the test works

Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

Last summer I was in Oaxaca and I attended a very nice festival which was called Guelaguetza. At this festival, there was a parade with women who carried flower baskets and danced happily. After watching the parade, I ate some enchiladas in some food stalls and I listened to traditional Mexican music. I had a great time there!

I'll be right with you...
