Here’s some tips before your exam tomorrow.
Listening:
1) read ahead. At the end of each section you will be given time to check your answers. Dont. Instead, Move to the next section and you will have more time to analyze the questions.
2) dont be stuck in the past. If you miss a question, dont panic. You dont have to remember it on the spot. Forget about that question and keep doing the rest of the task.
3) make smart guesses. If you hear the some of the words exactly like they appear in the options (in multiple choice or matching tasks), 90% of the time these options are not the correct one. For example, if the option C has the word ‘expensive’ in it and you hear the word expensive(not the paraphrase) in the recording, it’s not the correct answer. This can help you eliminate the options.
4) try to predict in part 1 and 4. Use your logic and expect at least the type of word you need to write.
