This Dictionary was my God in terms of English and it helped me a lot when I learned each and every page of it for Cambridge exam in 2012. Of course it was accompanied by Destination and Skipper, advanced combined with proficiency level and many more books I don't remember. I really miss those times. :\ And without that hard, strong practice and exercise I'm starting to forget a lot of things and my speech and pronunciation also suffered a lot so now I definitely can't say that I know more than back then 'cause that's not true. So sad. :\ I miss school but not the school I had in University with coruption, cheating, bored teachers who weren't interested in anything and lectures, courses and material that will never ever be useful, just a lot of information, many of it plagiated from other foreign case studies/thesis by teachers who weren't even able to rephrase it and not copy paste it word by word and just let it like that and give it to the student to learn for exam and say to them that they are your lecture notes. (Yeah right!).
