Boa tarde!
Anyone else last minute cramming for the CIPLE on the 13th? Starting to get very scary now!

I took it last year - the only really difficult section was (as everyone else says) oral comprension.
I would suggest keeping a few jokes handy, like during the oral presentation I said “Estou um pouco nervoso, podemos fazer isto em Inglês” It got a laugh and broke the ice. I also thanked the moderator at the end of the conversation, never hurts.
Relax and good luck!
Now that it´s over, how do feel about it’
You were definitely right about the oral comprehsion, I’ve got zero optimism I did well in that. The other 3 I think I maybe did okay but I just don’t know!
I was impressed with how well organised it was and how friendly the examiners were, but I absolutely do not want to have to redo it so just the dreaded wait for results.
How did you do on yours?
I squeeked by with a 68, of course my lowest score was in oral comprehension. I can’t remember the exact breakdown, but remember reading was my best section, and oral presentation next. I continue to study and have focused almost exclusively on learning through listening to content that I can understand, say 70 to 80 percent of, and feel like I’d score much better on the oral comprehension now, plus this method is helping me to speak better. Portuguese with Cristina has been excellent for this exersize, as of course is Practice Portuguese.
I’m betting you passed
Good luck!
