Cambridge Exams in the Computer-Based Format — Everything You Need to Know
Cambridge exams in the computer (Computer-Based or Digital) format are becoming increasingly popular each year. For many candidates, they are a more convenient alternative to the paper-based version, mainly due to faster results and the comfort of working on a computer.
Common Mistakes Candidates Make in Cambridge Exams
Cambridge English exams are among the most widely recognised language tests in the world. Their purpose, however, is not to check knowledge of individual grammar rules, but to assess communicative competence — how effectively a candidate can use English in real-life situations.

Below, we discuss the most common mistakes made during Cambridge exams, together with examples and practical tips on how to avoid them.
