The Course
Meridian’s Cambridge Exam Preparation courses will enable you to make progress in your all-round English ability while developing skills and techniques for exam success.The courses are closed which means all students start and finish their course at the same time as well as take the test on the same day. Because of this, our students have a high level of motivation and focus and work together as a team. To help achieve this we also organise our Cambridge Getaway and social events.
