Aptis reading Test: General Tips and Strategies

APTIS Speaking Part 4: Questions, Model Answers, Tips and 
Techniques 
In this post we will provide you with multiple sample questions, models answers and useful tips and techniques to prepare 
for APTIS speaking part 4. 
In the fourth part of the APTIS speaking, you must discuss your personal experience and opinions on an abstract topic.
For this part, you have three questions, but you answer the questions in one response. Your response should be 
structured and be two minutes long.
Before you speak you have one minute to prepare and to make notes. As you prepare you can see how much time you 
have from a timer on the screen.
After two-minutes speaking, the recording stops automatically.

What grammar do you need?

---

You want to show off your English skills and so you should try to use complex sentences, higher-level tenses and 
conditionals, passives, and inversions if you can.
Analyse the grammar
. When we look at the questions above, we can see that questions 1 & 2 are both in the past. 
There is no connection with the present and so you may not need the present perfect.
Question 3 is about coping with stress in general and so much of your answer could be present simple.
