I just completed the interview. It was good. I didn't hesitate as much as I expected to. So here is a summary of my questions:

Part 1:
Usual introductory questions then questions about shoes
How much you spend on them?, Do you like to buy them online?

Part 2:
Talk about something you look forward to achieve that's not related to work or study
-What is it?
- How to do it?
-Why do it?

Part 3:
- Discussing people and their time management
- Discussing how governments can enhance life

My memory of this part is a little bit hazy as I was excited that I finished part 2 without stopping during the speech :D

Cambridge books are really helpful and good resource for preparations. And Liz is truly amazing!
Whats your target score?

Any news on speaking test dates?
I'm aiming for 8.5 in Reading/Listening and 7 in Writing/Speaking, hopefully 7.5. Reading shouldn't be a problem as I'm scoring 8.5-9 on the practice tests. I'm focusing on listening as I'm scoring 8-8.5, so I need to be careful there. I'm aiming low in Writing & Speaking because I don't have a reference of the results of my practices.

My speaking test is also on the 29th.

My speaking test is also on the 29th.
Same is with me, i am also targeting LSWR 8777 to increase my CRS. Only key to success is Practice and Focus during exams.
Lets hope for the best! i'm going to appear in next month for GT module.

There is a lot of such cases reported by candidates in recent times. One of my friend faced the same issue in Punjab, India. Well, as per my knowledge you should report such complaints to organizers before leaving the test center on the same day.

Good luck for your exam and you will surely get 8/9 this time ! When is your listening test?
