Exclamation Does Anyone Familiar with LPI Test?

I have a LPI test tomorrow (what?) This would be my first try.

My goal is Level 5 or Level4 with essay 26

I just want to know: is this really a big deal for everyone? I mean, because I heard of someone saying that there is a HUGE distance between Lv.4 and Lv.5

I want to know the key point that may help someone jump levels easily.

Thanks, all replys will be appreciated!

I have never taught the exam, but the guidleines for marking do not suggest such a large jump, but a continuity of improvement:

(click on the grades for the descriptors)
It seems that a level 5 candidate will be writing a better structured peice without mistakes that impede comprehension, and few of them.
