Reading and listening were easy until 20th questions. However after that It's been very hard.
I must confess that I regret that I didn't starti from the last reading task as when I saw it I got nervous and struggled to read and reply because It seemed me very advance. It was about a bird species and their breeding, behaviours, social relations, plays, hunting technique etc. However, when I started reading I realised that it wasn't that hard at all. Nevertheless, it had paragraph heading questions which had many words that I didnt know what they meant.
Other questions were about;
An explanation sheet about payments for overtime working for part-time and full-time employees in terms of when, how many hours they work, how much they get paid.
Different type of surf courses in America, California I guess and the facilities, oppotunities they provide.
I forgot the True False questions's reading task subject. They asked true false questions from only one task.
Listening questions were classic. A lady called an insurance company and adress abd postcode completion, what happened. Another one was about different facilities at a funfair.Where to eat there, which facility does what etc. Table filling while a tutor and student discussing about different subjects, reseach types, study materials, and how to prepare an assessment and what to do for the presentation of it.
The last one was about dolphins and a type of bird. A woman was talking about their intelligence and the clues of their intelligence, their behaviors, examples etc.. The last one was so cute. She gave an example about a female dolphin that she was collecting rubbish in the pool and every time she did it, she was awarded a fish by her trainer. So, she hid a newspaper in the pool and she was tearing a small piece off everytime time she wanted fish.
I expect to get around 6 from listening and reading. There were times I lost my concentration since I couldn't sleep properly the night before and didn't really practice as I aimed to get 6 for this time. Fingers crossed!
Speaking, I had 5,5 and 6,5 before in a row. So I hope I will get something around 6.
However, I can not be very optimistic about writing part.
Task 2 was coherent, cohesive, the task question was delivered with enough and accurate examples according to Ryan's Task 2 ebook. I doubt that I used many advance words but I guess it was just enough. As a result I can apparently get 6.
Unfortunetely for task 1 I guess I wrote just over 125 words. It was cohesive, coherent and all the questions were delievered. It had an informal style and a couple of good words. So, comparing to marking sheet that examiners use, I could get 5,5 easly if I wrote at least 150 words. So, I have a question here, I wonder how much the examiners would penalise me for that issue? If any idea, please share..
I will get my results on 24th of April and surely will share here. Nevertheless, I will be around here since getting 7 is my new aim.
