I just did a CPE sentence completion test, and there was this sentence in it:
The offer of a job will only be confirmed following a successful medical examination.
My task was to complete the following structure with 3 to 8 words while retaining the meaning of the original sentence. The given word was completed. And the structure to complete was:
Once (fill in 3 to 8 words), the offer of a job will be confirmed.
I completed the above as follows:
Once a successful medical examination is completed, the offer of a job will be confirmed.
My question is, do the original and my sentence have the same meaning? The answer key gives only one possible answer, but typically there are more than one correct answer to these types of tests.
