Different types of composition

0Hi,02br
02br
00I hope I'm posting this question in the proper place (I'm not sure whether I should only post essays here!) I'm sitting the Cambridge CPE in June, and I'm half-terrified about it. Not completely terrified, because I find it so unattainable (I haven't attended a single English lesson for seven years) that I'm simply going to have a look at it and try to find out what my weak points are, for future attempts. Anyway, I'm trying to prepare a bit for the exam. Only the "Reading" and "Use of English" papers seem fairly achievable, even without devoting much time to preparing them, and since I'm as talkative as a concrete wall, and blessed with a pitiable ear, I don't think I'm going to waste much time with the "Speaking" and "Listening" papers. That means I'm focusing on the "Writing" paper.02br

00My main concern here is how to know what I must write. I've read that in the different parts of this paper I may be asked to write in six 01del00I think02del00 different formats: article, essay, letter, proposal, report or review. Could anybody please tell me the differences in structure, content or style among them, or tell me where I can find them?02br

00Thanks a lot in advance.0-
