While you watch
Whenever you watch an Aptis mock-exam speaking test like this one, pause the video and add to your notes. Don’t write a script – just brief notes to help you get started. If you memorise a script, it’s very obvious to any experienced examiner. We’ve seen it a lot, and it doesn’t help you get a good mark – quite the opposite, in fact. Candidates end up giving responses that don’t quite fit the question. The trick is to memorise short phrases and use them appropriately. Check out our 50+ Useful Phrases to help you pass your Aptis Test to give you some ideas. As we’ve said before, typical themes and questions recur in these exams. So with enough practice, relevant expressions and phrases will come to you more naturally.
