Reliability and validity are two criteria to evaluate whether a test paper is successful. This paper analyzes the vocabulary and structure MCQ (Multiple Choice Question) of National English Proficiency Competition for Middle School Students (NEPCMSS) test in 2010, evaluating the reliability and content validity by using SPSS software. It is concluded that the 20 multiple choice questions are not difficult in terms of difficulty; the reliability is good but the content validity is not so satisfied.
