«It has now been 13 weeks since we left Switzerland and after a long time of intense preparation, the Cambridge C1 exams are over. We can finally relax a bit after studying for it frequently.

On Friday the 17^th in the afternoon all of us were heading to the exam centre for our speaking exam. Many of us were very nervous about it since you can never know whether you are lucky with the business topics that are given to you or not, or if you have a sudden mental blackout. Fortunately, there was relief in knowing that we are in groups, that the exam only lasts about 10-15 minutes, and turns switch during the exam.

The next morning demanded waking up early to get to the centre on time, which was 8:30 AM at the latest. We then proceeded to take the reading, writing and listening exam. The concentration was there, so perhaps it was better to have it in the morning after all.

But much like our experience with the B2 exam, our worries proved to be unnecessary and we found that we did well in the end. We are already curious to know how our results turn out.»
