FCE exam crammer is an online course, designed for students who are thinking of taking the Cambridge First English exam. It consists of 21 modules and 73 exam-style exercises, and provides approximately 60 hours of study for students.
Each module concentrates on a different area of the FCE exam, giving information about the exam, tips on how to answer the questions and advice about where students often make mistakes. It then tests them on that part of the exam.
Before beginning the course, the student is invited to take an Entry test, which consists of a complete Reading and Writing and Listening paper from the exam. At the end of the course, the student is invited to take another complete Reading and Writing and Listening paper and the student's result is analysed by the program, giving a percentage of improvement and predicts a grade in the actual exam they take.
