I knew I didn't do so well on the speaking part, partly because I didn't have enough sleep the night before. I was quite disoriented at the speaking section as if you can imagine one just woke up in the morning heavy headed and hadn't got out of bed yet. So, make sure you go to the test well rested.
I thought I did really bad on the reading though. I spent exactly 20 minutes on each passage and the last one was quite hard, and I started to panic when time was counting down in the last 10 minutes. I was tossing between whether I would read the questions and try to answer them or actually do search for the information properly. So, I answered with just skimming through the passage and mostly guessing. It might be luck that I still get 7.5 for this part. Considering that I only did one practice test for listening and reading, I am satisfied with these results.
I was quite calm in the writing section and had about 5 minutes to proofread. I must say that I owe Ryan a great deal for providing very practical strategies for essay writing.
So, I am done. I am not gonna worry about this test ever again, I guess. It's such a relief! Ayyyyy!!!!

Congratulations!
