First of all, I would like to congratulate and send best wishes to all those who have studied hard and recently sat for the CAE exam. You, and all the CAEs before you, are an encouragement to me as I study and prepare to sit for the exam in December 2010.
And speaking of studying, I picked up this great study tip from

"Take the domain test then read the domain and then retake the test. Only then do check your answers."

The other problem I have is procrastination. How do you think the writing of this posting came about. Yes, you guessed it, I'm procrastinating from reading.
I guess I should probably go study now...
By the way, if you have any study tips I would love to hear about them.
