It doesn’t say how many passages or passages per question. Some reading parts of the exam, there are 3 questions for each passage (which i am trying to look for but taking a long time to find) but this feels like there’s 1 question for each passage which is inaccurate. Would be helpful to include this.
as you said, some reading parts especially long ones have more than one questions.
