Cambridge B2 First | Frequently Asked Questions
I get asked several questions a day regarding the Cambridge B2 First exam. So, I decided to start noting these questions down, along with my answers.
I will categorise these questions in the future, but for now, these are some of the most common questions I am asked:
Question:
Good night, teacher! I’m doubt with how much time do I have to pass my answers to the answer sheet paper. For example, in the Listening test I have minutes after the test to do this. In the Use of English and Reading test I have this 5 minutes after the 75 min, or is during this 75 min that I have to do this? Thank you very much!!!
My response:
Hi José, You have five minutes at the end of each exam paper to transfer your answers to the answer sheet.
Question:
What can I expect on the exam day?
My response:
Hey, that’s a good question. Here is a 10 minute long video giving you loads of important details:
Question:
My exam is tomorrow, what should I do?
My response:
Many students are very nervous the day before the exam, especially if they haven’t prepared. Here is some useful advice:
Question:
“I have one question. I’m confused if the reading part (5,6 and 7) it’s in the same day of the use of English (1, 2 and 3). All together?”
My response:
“Hi, yes, the reading and use of English exercises are combined into one long exam paper, so you will do them both on the same day.”
Question:
“Do we use a pen or pencil?”
My response:
“Use a pencil and write in capital letters. In the writing paper you can write with a pen and you can write in small letters, but write neatly.”
I will update this page with more Cambridge B2 First questions soon.
