Study guidance
Six things every Cambridge English student should know
Read the question twice. The task word (describe, explain, compare) determines your entire approach — get it wrong and the answer is wrong regardless of quality.
CriticalIn directed writing, the format (letter, report, speech) is part of the mark scheme. Failing the format costs marks before the examiner reads a single sentence.
CriticalComprehension answers must be in your own words unless you are quoting as evidence. Paraphrasing is a marked skill — practise it deliberately.
HighLeave time to re-read your composition. Examiners reward control and precision over impulsive length. A tight 450 words outscores a rambling 700.
HighBand descriptors are published by CAIE and available freely. Reading them is the single most effective exam preparation you can do independently.
HighPast papers from the last five years are the most predictive of current exam patterns. Earlier papers may reflect different rubric versions.
MediumHow to use these resources
Start with a past paper walkthrough for your specific syllabus. Then go deeper on the component you find hardest. Directed writing and comprehension have the highest impact-per-minute for most students.
