Another helpful tip is to immerse yourself in the language as much as possible. Listen to English music, watch English TV shows, and read English books. This will help you get a better feel for the language and improve your comprehension skills.

Lastly, don’t forget to take care of yourself before the test. Get a good night’s sleep, eat a nutritious meal, and try to relax. You got this!
