    Hello Ben! I did the C1 exam last July and I got 192 scores (Speaking paper), 183 (writing paper) and 160 (Use of English), however I found much difficult to manage my time in the Listening and Reading Paper, so I had to make a guess in many questions. I didn't pass in the exam but I am happy with my scores in Speaking and Writing papers. I used many expressions and tips you taught us. Thanks for everything!

    On the CPE sometimes you do need contractions like “the minister’s speech”. I learned that because I was trying my best not to use contractions on my practices, but in the end it turned out that I needed them 😅

  • @nicolepriori6765
    @nicolepriori6765 6 месяцев назад

    Hi Ben, thanks for your brilliant videos. Would you consider synonyms:
    Maggie didn’t mind keeping an EYE/putting an EYE on her children?
    And again: Joanna apologised to her friend for HAVING turned/showed up so late at the party.
    It’ll be very helpful to know whether the examiners will consider them correct or wrong. Thank you 😘

    • @tothepointenglishwithben.
      @tothepointenglishwithben.  4 месяца назад +1

      The first example would be incorrect because "put an eye on someone" isn't a common phrase in English and isn't a synonym of "Keep an eye on."
      The second example would be correct if you wrote "shown up"

    I am taking the computer-based exam and I was wondering whether I need to write part 2, 3 and 4 answers using capital letters or not.

    • @tothepointenglishwithben.
      @tothepointenglishwithben.  Год назад

      No, you don't need to write in capital letters in the computer-based exam. I recommend you use the sample tests on the Cambridge Assessment English website to practise with the platform before taking the exam.

    Hello! Great video but I have a question: for the last one, your response is "there is no way telling",. In my mind I thought "there is no way to tell", is it also correct grammatically? Thanks.

    • @tothepointenglishwithben.
      @tothepointenglishwithben.  Год назад

      Yes, that would be grammatically correct. (Of course, in the exam, you can't change the key word)

    • @tothepointenglishwithben.

      I recommend you practise writing with pen and paper and check your spelling when you have finished.
