I'd say it's a tall order but absolutely not impossible. Practice makes perfect. Based on experience, I'd say focus on writing and speaking practice because these are the areas that we don't normally do as pinoys (unless ur hubby's work involves essay writing and speaking english for long hours)...

Honestly man, I dont know how you do it but I cant remember a thing (I just happen to recall a few based on the info you posted.
Anyhow, I agree that heading matching about drivers license process is quite an easy one since the headings are all in question form. You just have to figure out if the content answers the appropriate question straight up
