Hi all, I've just received an invitation to take the Cambridge English admissions test. Does anyone have any information about how our scores could affect the decision on our applications? Is there a minimum score that we must meet?

Any other advice regarding the test would also be much appreciated!

Congratulations on your invitation! I got one this morning. I saw somewhere that (out of 60) most successful applicants get around 45-50, but it also depends on how strong the rest of your application is and how you compare to the other applicants. I'm kind of worried because I haven't done much unseen work or language analysis at A-level yet (I do OCR which is all context), but have done a lot of comparison which will hopefully help. There are past papers and exemplars on PMT and I was planning to make a list of techniques to look for (to read over before the exam) and do some practice essays. Good luck on your test!

The list is such a good idea! Thanks so much and good luck to you too!
