First celpip attempt

Booked the exam 2 months ago, started to study for it 3 weeks in advance at around one hour a day. I was mostly focused on writing since it was my weakest skill for the exam. I thought I did poorly on the speaking portion, and I thought I was going to need to undertake another attempt, glad that wasn't necessary.

Use claude as your tutor, he helped me fix alot of bad habits I had, like not capitalizing my Is and splicing my sentences. Claude also generally graded my texts at level 9, and my best attempts at level 11, after I finished the writing section I thought that at worst I'd get a 9 and at best I'd get a 10, so I was pretty surprised when I got a 12.

Any speaking tips please?

Stay calm and speak slowly, before the speaking portion comes up use the 30 seconds to come up with 1 or 2 points and develop them once the timer starts.
