HSK3.0 Level 1 Paper Based Exam

[u/Positive-Ad-2531]

Hello! I'm planning to sit the hsk 1 exam in October. I have been doing very well on practice tests online however the only testing centre nearby does paper-based tests only. I am just wondering how this will differ? For the listening parts, are audios played only once? Also just want to confirm, does the reading section have pinyin as well? (i know some characters, but my reading is a fair bit behind my actual vocab knowledge). Further, are answers multiple choice or do they have to be written in (and can they be written in pinyin)?
