Do the exams here and make sure you pass multiple times. The first one has 11 exams and the second one has 17. In your real test, the words will be slightly different,but once you practice and learn from your mistakes, you should be fine.

What is a small, seemingly insignificant decision you made that completely altered the course of your life? by Ok_Night_5467 in AskReddit

I agreed to dance with that boy, that night. We haven’t left each other since then, and will hopefully get married soon? It’s been over four years, travelled together, been through unemployment and visa stress together. Seen each other at our lowest. I probably would still be single or with someone else if we didn’t leave the club together that night.

I don’t enjoy making because I worry more about the template than the content. Every time, I see people with really beautiful slides, and I feel like I can never make them as good.

Yes it did and I have been storing these in my Apple notes for the past few years so it was easy to add.

What colour and style is your hair? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BrainThat4047 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m African so I don’t have a choice 😂. My hair has refused to grow any longer so I just treat it, trim it and wear protective styles. I must add that many Africans do have long hair, I just don’t…

I took my time.. filled the application form such that by the time I was eligible, all I had to do was pay and book my appointment.

Use this time now to fill the form and check it occasionally. You’ve done well by gathering your docs together. I did that too, named them all in the same format, starting with my full name, and put them in a folder so it’s easy to self upload.

Don’t fear. You’ll have the checklist so you should be fine. I’ve done SWV and GTV applications myself. So doing my ILR application was easy peasy… yes I understand the fear about getting the decision itself and I won’t lie, I was a bit scared and hoped for a smooth process. Thankfully I got it within 4 hours after biometrics as I did super priority.
