Aptis reading Test: General Tips and Strategies

Polish your topic vocabulary:
Most vocabulary books are set out in topics- Holidays, work, 
sport, shopping, music etc. By learning your vocabulary by topic then you will be more prepared if it 
comes up in the exam. 
The power of music:
Music is a great aid to memory. Memorising words that you like and 
remembering lyrics will help your vocabulary and grammar, as well as improving your listening 
skills. 
The excitement of film:
Films (or ‘movies’) help us predict what will be said by providing visual 
cues. The body language of an actor – as well as their tone of voice – give signs of what is about to 
be said, so it will help your English comprehension. Also, the more interested you are, the harder 
you will listen. 
Think In English:
This is not easy if you live in a country that is non-native English speaking, 
but you could change the operating system on your phone, tablet or laptop to English. Play a game 
with your friends where everyone has to speak English for an hour (try to make it funny by trying to 
sound as English as possible). Have a day when you only listen to or watch things that are in 
English. Practice situations or dialogues when you are travelling or don’t have anything to do.
Try as many as practice APTIS tests:
Doing practice tests will help you build your 
concentration levels and your instinct. More than that, practice will improve your English and help 
you with the timings you need to complete the test with the best result. If you would like to increase 
your APTIS score by practicing more listening practice tests then please check the exam library in
