just curious, for your test did you have to do the "Discussion of a prepared topic (up to 5 mins)".
The Topic phase gives candidates the opportunity to display their level of the language while talking about self-selected and personal topics. When choosing the topic for discussion, candidates should prepare the topic on a subject they are personally interested in, knowledgeable about and able to discuss with the examiner for up to 5 minutes.

Before your examination you must complete a 'Topic form' which you will present to the examiner when you enter the examination room. The examiner uses the information on the Topic form to help initiate and develop a discussion about your chosen topic area. It is designed to encourage spontaneous discussion so you should not try to memorise what you are going to say.
I have no real knowledge of a particular topic that I feel have enough knowledge on without it being technical and come across as "out of their knowledge base" or be absurd having someone try and ask questions about. If they don't really know the subject matter (networking) I can waffle on about anything really and it not be wrong, but then that would be suspicious cos they'd think I chose a technical subject just for that purpose.

I think I might have to submit my form before the 28th to avoid all this.

When you ill register your self online for a test they ill send you an email within 24 hours which ill contain everything there will be an link regarding details of this test in first part you have to choose a topic of your own for conversation but be careful don't choose topic from the list which is given for second part.The topic must be your own and in second part they ill choose 2 topics by their own for further conversation.

if someone ill apply for ILR before 28th October 2013 so they ill still require this test later on for naturalisation as well.

Please don't stress about B1 level test.

If you can speak and understand english like a 2 years old child, you will pass the test with flying colours.

When is the award ceremony? I am sure it will be someone from royal family who will come to award a certificate of such a distinction.

A knighthood for such a great distinction in speaking and listening of the english language is a real possibility.
