CAE vs. CPE - is it better to get worse results in CPE exam or better in CAE? I am choosing between which Cambridge exam to take. I know I am a level C1 and think I could do reasonably well in a CAE exam (maybe even get an A from it - which would basically give me the C2 level of English on a CAE certificate). That is why I'm thinking - why not go further ahead and try the CPE exam. It is possible, though, that my results will be worse because I don't have as much time to prepare for it - and I might end up getting a CPE certificate with only C1 level results. Which one do you guys think is better to do? Take a risk and "fail" (but still get C1) or to do what I know I'm good at and hopefully be pleasantly surprised? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks a lot guys! :-)
