I'm not entirely sure - Certificate of Advanced English
You're getting your certificate or something? :?
no, not at all - it is like summing-up book - everything is included, exercises are enough complicated, detailed grammar references, new vocabulary. My teacher doesn't like Advanced Headway as this one.

Each kind has different levels from elementary to upper-advanced.

I prefer Longman's books.
