The highest-level exam, for example, is divided into two sections: The first section includes general knowledge tests and specialist tests in a multiple-choice format. The second section includes essay questions on specialized knowledge, a hybrid exam (mainly testing judgment and reasoning ability), and an oral interview.
以高等考試（即第一種考試）為例，分兩階段：第一階段包括通識測驗和專業測驗（採選擇題），第二階段包括專業測驗（採申論題）、綜合測驗（主要在測驗判斷、思考能力）和口試。
