Looking for more practice questionsDoes anyone know where I can purchase the Cambridge drill packets? Any other places to find questions to practice with?
I'm sure you can find a Cambridge packet somewhere on eBay/amazon, but they will most likely be pricey since the company no longer sells them. If you upgrade to ultimate+ though you can get all questions with explanations! -

Yes, it's a little bit both. Some come from lesser known academic journals and some are written specifically for the test. The original works are formatted and edited for clarity so that RC questions with absolute right/wrong answers can be constructed. -
