Who is this book for?
Essential BULATS is for anyone preparing to take the BULATS test. It can be used at
home, or in class with a teacher.
What is in this book?
Essential BULATS covers all parts of the BULATS test.
The book covers the Standard Test (Listening, and Reading and Language Knowledge), the
Writing Test and the Speaking Test. There is also an introduction to the Computer Test.
The CD ROM provides an introduction to the Computer Test. It contains the 8 question
types assessed on the BULATS Computer Test. These are Listening tasks (Listen and
Select; Listen and Select (graphic); and Extended Listening) and Reading and Language
Knowledge tasks (Read and Select; Extended Reading; Multiple-choice gap fill; Open gap
fill; and Gapped sentences). The questions on the CD ROM are exactly the same as the
questions in the book, but the CD ROM allows you to try these questions on screen, in
the same format as they appear in the BULATS Computer Test. However, if you prefer,
you can practise these questions in the book instead.
The Audio CD contains the listening material for Essential BULATS.
How is this book organised?
Essential BULATS is organised by test paper (the Listening Test, the Reading and
Language Knowledge Test, the Writing Test and the Speaking Test).
Each section opens with a general introduction to each part of the test. This is followed
by practice material to help you prepare for each part of the test, such as skills practice
and test practice. After each section there is a sample practice test on the part of the test
you have just practised. The sample practice test sections are provided by Cambridge
ESOL and so offer the most authentic test preparation available for BULATS.
If you prefer to take the Computer Test question types on screen, instead of in the book,
these questions are provided on the CD ROM.
The answer key and recording scripts appear at the back of the book.
You can use the book in any order you wish. For example, if you would like to practise
for the Reading and Language Knowledge questions, you can go directly to this section.
