      Summary: The authors investigate lexical progression across different levels of Cambridge Main Suite exams. They used a mixed method approach where content analysis of lexical resources in the texts was carried by expert judges, while the WordSmith software package and Tom Cobb's Compleat Lexical Tutor were used to examine lexical variation, frequency bands and lexical complexity.
